JUCO rule

Don't forget:

13.2 Physical Contact with an Umpire or Opponent
Any threat of physical intimidation or harm, including pushing, shoving, spitting,
kicking, throwing at or attempting to make aggressive physical contact, or use
of equipment in a combative manner, shall not be tolerated and is considered
fighting.

EFFECT—The perpetrator shall be ejected and then suspended from
the institution’s next two scheduled and played contests in a
traditional season (spring). For a second offense by an individual
in the same season, the individual shall serve a four-game
suspension. For a third offense by an individual in the same
season, the individual shall be suspended for the remainder of the
season, including postseason competition (if applicable).....

Yeah, I forgot about that one.

So is this correct? In JUCO the player has to it out the next game after an ejection, but not in NCAA? My friend was working a JUCO tourney last year and was shown this in the JUCO rules or by-laws. NCAA doesn't mention sitting out the next game as far as I can see. Dave

I've never seen a copy of the NJCAA Handbook & Casebook. According to the NJCAA website, they cover by-laws, eligibility requirements, etc. etc., for all the JUCO sports, and are distributed only to the President and the Athletic Director of each junior college this is a member of the NJCAA.

It's entirely conceivable that the H&C does require a one-game suspension following an ejection in softball. But since I've never been issued a H&C, I can't verify that.

For JUCO play here, we use the NCAA rule book.

The JUCO conference has it's own bylaws and any person ejected is required to sit out the next scheduled game, including the second game of a double header, if the ejection happened in the first game.

Same here for the Region I work.

Your responsibility is to file a game report; and if the player returns in a later game you observe or officiate, you make note of it. The report should/must/will go to the NJCAA, Conference Commissioner, and the affected schools' administrators; if they violated an administrative rule that isn't a playing rule, it is their responsibility to deal with it, not the umpires.

In the NCAA, this is handled by Dee, and monitored by the conference; NAIA and NJCAA have their own process, let them handle it. The official scorebook and box score of each following game, mandated for standardization at each level, will document and support if they violated.

I'll just throw in a "same here" to cover the area I work.
