1. Protests based on the judgment calls of officials will not be considered under any circumstances.


2. Protests must be made on the field of play at the time of the incident before the next live ball situation. The team should first notify the head official, the scorekeeper, and then the supervisor. The protest should be written down completely upon the score sheet with all the details concerning the time of the game, score, players involved, etc. The rest of the game should be played. Also, the team should turn a typewritten protest within 24 hours of the game to the Intramural Office completely explaining the situation. Protests not following this procedure will not be considered.


3. The Intramural Director will check out the officials' stories and rule on the protest. If the team losing the protest disagrees with the Director's decision they may appeal formally by submitting a $5.00 protest fee within 24 hours of notification. The protest will then go before a committee of five people composed of faculty or students who will make the final decision. If the protest goes against the team they lose the money, if good the money is returned. The decision is final.


4. If a protest is upheld, the contest will be replayed from the point at which the protest occurred, as determined by the score sheet. Date and time will be set by the Intramural Department, or as determined by the Intramural Protest Appeals Board.


5. The Intramural Department does not assume the responsibility for checking on the eligibility of participants. However, any cases called to the Department's attention by written protest will be dealt with according to eligibility rules.


6. The Director shall have the authority to establish special rulings whenever deemed necessary. Sometimes exceptional situations do occur. The option to appeal a protest is still in effect.
