Ejection Policies and Are They Upheld?

I see that you are conveniently attempting to ignore this part.


I'm done with this now. I've clearly made my point and do not wish to cause the moderators a headache.

Buh-bye.

From the IHSA Official's Handbook, page 27:

"Ejections for unsportsmanlike conduct are considered decisions of contest officials and will not be subject to appeal (by-law 6.033). Schools and the IHSA may assess additional penalties for unsportsmanlike conduct of players and coaches. Official, if you eject a player or coach this ejection is final. There is no changing of the decision during or after the contest. Therefore make sure that the ejection is warranted."

Peace

This is a quote very similar to what the IHSAA (Iowa Boys) uses in their officials manual as well, and it gets pointed out in each coach/officials' letter that is sent out during the sports season. They hammer it to death. The IGHSAU (Iowa Girls) reference something similar to this as well, but not as much as the IHSAA.

The NSAA (Nebraska)...I don't see this quote anywhere or any reminder to the officials. Maybe that explains why ReffingRev's situation had a twist to it. Ironic how the varsity level gets a different treatment than the subvarsity level, because I had a game where a player and an assistant coach from the same school got ejected (by my partner) and they both sat out their suspensions, and the coach apparently didn't take the online class, because I saw the same team later, and asked the head coach where his assistant was. Response: no longer my assistant.
