CCAL Athletic Excellence in Sports Award

Step 1: Within 24 hours of the match or game, the head coach of the team contacts the Athletic Director and/or Principal to review the issues. The Athletic Director and/or Principal reviews
CCAL By-Law 160 or By-Law 165 prior to any action.

Step 2: The Athletic Director and/or Principal notify the Commissioner of the CCAL of the possible appeal to be filed.

Step 3: The Athletic Director contacts the Commissioner of Officials and requests a written
statement from the official who officiated the match or game in question.

Step 4. The Athletic Director collects all written statements from appropriate individuals and reviews the case with the school site Principal. A copy of all documents is to be sent to the
CCAL Commissioner. The commissioner notifies the League President of possible appeal and reviews the case and its issues.

Step 5. The commissioner of the CCAL determines if there is a reasonable doubt warranting a hearing. The commissioner contacts the League President with a request to convene an appeal committee. In the event that the school principal does not agree with the commissioner's decision, the school principal may contact the league president for a ruling.

Step 6. If an incident occurs that results in a disqualification of a player or coach during a period of time when schools are closed for holidays or other closures, and as a result no CCAL principals are available to conduct a timely hearing, the CCAL Commissioner will review the reported appeal and all of the related evidence before making the decision, independent from any other committee, as to the eligibility of the disqualified individual(s). This decision will be final.

Prior to the end of season sport league meeting:

1. The CCAL sports representative for that sport will send a blank all-league ballot to all CCAL varsity head coach at each league school.

Each athlete that is nominated should be ranked with #1 being designated the first choice to a number for the last choice. In this example each coach would rank the athletes from 1 to 5.

4. Each CCAL varsity head coach does not vote for athletes from their own team.

5. The CCAL sports representative makes a nomination master ballot with the total to each school’s varsity head coach for that sport.
