Attendance Eligibility Requirements

• If students have legitimate excuses for missing a practice, such as illness, family emergency, they should be able to participate in the next contest.
   
• If a student asks to be excused from a practice or game for an ongoing school-sponsored activity, a compromise should be reached whereby a student could attend half of the activity and half of the practice. This would not affect the amount of playing time for a student for the days he/she attends the other activity.
   
• If students miss a practice or a game because of a school-sponsored activity that does not meet regularly, such as ski club, math club, or variety show, they will be allowed to participate in the next contest, but on a limited basis.

If a student misses practice without a legitimate excuse, participation will be at the coach’s discretion in the next contest.
