Request the athlete to go immediately to the bench and to the head coach. One contest official will go to the sidelines, make eye contact with the head coach and announce that the athlete has been ejected from this contest and state the reason. Athletes should not be left unsupervised at any time. It is vital that the coach knows the reason for which the athlete has been ejected. This year any athlete ejected for flagrant or unsportsmanlike conduct is required to miss their next event.
Communication is vital.
Official must fill out an Officials Report and forward it to the WIAA within 48 hours. Officials are not required to contact the school s athletic director to advise the administration of the ejection. The WIAA will forward a copy of the Officials Report Form to the appropriate school personnel upon receipt of the report from the official. The ejection of a coach requires that the official approach the coach, announce the ejection to the coach and request that the coach leave the competition area. In addition, the official must ask which coach or school representative will function as the head coach in the ejected coaches absence.
