The Coaches Role in the Student Eligibility Process

Assistant Executive Director WIAA office contact for eligibility John Miller *Use the back of your handout to list questions you may have as we review the material on student eligibility.

You are part of your school TEAM Very mobile society Coach is often the first contact for a new student/athlete Ask the student or parents a few key questions beyond their athletic participation or ability Why does the coach have a role in the student eligibility process?

Where do you live? Whom do you live with? Where did you go to school last semester? How many classes did you pass last semester? Questions to ask a prospective student/athlete

What grade are you in school? When did you enter the 7 th and 9 th grades? How old are you? Are you currently enrolled in our school district? Are you a running start, alternative education or home schooled student? More questions to ask a prospective student/athlete

Alert your Athletic Administrator and School Administrators of the prospective student/athlete Direct any inquiries from parents or others to your school administration Do not put yourself in a position to be accused of recruiting athletes Notify your AD so he or she can check the student’s athletic eligibility in depth What do you do next…

Understand and communicate to your athletes your school’s Athletic Registration process Make registration materials available to athletes: team meetings, mailings, etc. Let athletes know where they can get the athletic registration materials at school Be sure you understand your school’s Athletic Registration process

Follow your school registration process DO NOT LET ATHLETES PRACTICE IN ANY MANNER WITHOUT ATHLETIC CLEARANCE Do not accept athletic registration materials at practice. You do not have time to review for accuracy and completeness Registration process continued

Do not put you, your school or coaching staff in a potential liability conflict by letting an athlete practice without athletic clearance. LIABILITY ALERT

Know the basic eligibility rules at all levels: State, League and School District Don’t be the last to know Listen with a focus on potential eligibility red flags Listen for eligibility RED FLAGS

No individual is bigger than the TEAM Parents and students will lie to gain athletic eligibility There are NO shortcuts to athletic eligibility You cannot catch EVERYTHING all the time. Make sure your athletic director clears each student for athletic eligibility prior to participating. NEVER compromise yourself, your team or your school

After registering with and/or attending a middle level or high school, students changing enrollment to/from one school district to another school district or from one high school to another high school in a multiple high school district shall be considered transferring students. A transfer student has JV eligibility for one year Rule Varsity eligibility in any sport the student did not participate in the previous year at the school, club or community level Appeal to WIAA District Eligibility Committee if a hardship exists Transfer Student

Student must have a previous semester Student must have been issued grades in the minimum number of classes (or received credits equivalent) in previous semester Student must have been enrolled within the first 3 weeks of the semester – change of residence is okay Previous Semester

6 years once the student enters or becomes eligible to enter the 7 th grade - Academic exceptions for 7 th or 8 th graders 4 years once the student enters or becomes eligible to enter the 9 th grade - Replacement year granted by Eligibility Committee when a hardship exists (Hardship must have prevented graduation on time and caused non-participation) - No 6 th year granted Season Limitation

A hardship exists only when some unique circumstances concerning the student’s physical or emotional status exits and only when such circumstances are not the result of acts or actions by the student or family unit. Usual maturation problems or family situations that do not cause severe and abnormal emotional problems and academic or athletic deficiencies in a school’s curriculum or extracurricular activities do not constitute a hardship.
