SECTION 12 – RESULTS AND PROTESTS

If a team forfeits more than once during the scheduling parameters of its activity’s regular season, the team will be dropped from remaining competition.

In any instance of team disqualification, the team will remain active in IMLeagues and rostered members will not be permitted to join other teams within that same league.

SECTION 12 – RESULTS AND PROTESTS

Results

Contest results are typically entered at the conclusion of the contest. Office personnel double-check scoresheets each morning following a night of intramural activity. Results are available to view via an activity’s league, division, playoff bracket or team page in IMLeagues. Participants may also see their previous results from their individual IMLeagues profile page. Results (other than contests based on special circumstance) are not posted anywhere outside of IMLeagues.

Forfeited contests will be recorded as a forfeit only (win or loss applied appropriately). No specific scores will be recorded. Attendance will be recorded for on-site forfeits and will count towards the number of contests played.

If a posted result is inaccurate, please contact administration IMMEDIATELY so we can look into the situation inquestion. If an alleged inaccuracy is not brought to our attention in a timely manner, it is not guaranteed to be examined and/or changed (especially during playoffs).

Protests

Team captains are permitted to protest the following items related to an intramural contest:

• Eligibility • Rule Interpretation • Scoring • Sportsmanship Rating • Recorded Result in IMLeagues • Disciplinary Decision

Judgment

Officials’ judgment is not subject to protest. Examples include, but are not limited to (complete/incomplete pass, foul/no foul, goal/no goal, etc.).

To Protest

To officially file a protest, a team captain must either:

• Call the on-site supervisor over and protest mid-contest. This is similar to a “review” in professional sports.

The on-duty supervisor will record the current state of the contest and consult the activity-specific rulebook and/or this handbook and render a decision. If the decision is not accepted by the protesting team, the contest will continue to its completion under protest. Teams are subject to being charged a timeout or applicable penalty for upheld protests. Contests that continue under protest will be reviewed by the protest board

• Notify the Assistant Director of the team’s intent to forfeit. This is to be done via email, phone or in-person notification no more than 24 hours after the conclusion of a regular season event. Post-contest protests for a playoff contest must be made by 12:00 noon the following intramural business day
