VIOLATIONS AND CONSEQUENCES

TRAINING RULES A1, A2, AND A3 FIRST OFFENSE : The student-athlete will be suspended for one-third (1/3) of the total contests in the current sport season or the first scheduled sport in which the athlete participates. The athlete must attend all practices and contests and follow all requirements for the sport successfully as set out by the coach for the entire season. Failure to complete in good standing will void any suspension served and the suspension will remain in effect as if no contests have already been served. SECOND OFFENSE : The student-athlete will be suspended from all IHSA athletic activities for one calendar year (365 days) from the date of the offense. The original suspension may be reduced by half (180 days) from the original date of the offense provided the student successfully completes a licensed drug, alcohol, or tobacco treatment program (such as IHR or Chestnut) as approved by the school administration. Random drug screening will follow successful completion of the approved treatment program via the school drug screen provider until the 365 days suspension expires. Successful completion of the treatment program will not be considered by the administration until an official letter from the licensed facility is received. Cost of the treatment program and any required additional testing will be at the athlete’s expense.
