Athlete Conduct

STUDENT ATHLETE CONDUCT

Any student who wishes to participate in interscholastic sports must first meet the eligibility policy located in the QAC Calendar/Handbook. QACPS eligibility code is as follows: A 1.99 GPA or lower on the Quarter Report period results in ineligibility until the conclusion of the next Quarter Report period. Students who are ineligible may not practice or play in any contests.

• The student athlete will refrain from using all forms of alcohol, tobacco, and illegal drugs.

• Any suspension (in-school or out-of-school) will restrict the student from participating (contests and practices) during the suspension period.

• A student must be in school all day in order to practice or participate in an interscholastic sport. Exceptions to this rule may be made by the principal of a member school for extenuating circumstances. (Bayside Conference Rule)

• Coaches will establish additional guidelines for practice and participation in contests which should be submitted to the athletic director for approval.

• The student athlete will be required to take care of all equipment and uniforms and is accountable for that equipment. Any damage to school property will not be tolerated and disciplinary or legal action will result.
