Pupil activity permits ?

Beaver Eastern High School had multiple coaches violate General Sport Regulation 4, Failure to Acquire Pupil Activity Permits. In accordance with General Sport Regulation 4, Eastern has been fined $750.

Every person that is around your kids are suppose to have a pupil activity permit. Which is a back ground check, fundamentals of coaching and to apply to state for Pupil activity permit

That's why no one is suppose to have alumni involved in practices or team events such as open fields or open gyms.

That seems a little crazy. Is that a lifetime thing ? What about old coaches that come in for speeches? 750 seeks a bit much.

This is also a State Legislature issue, it’s part of the OHIO Revised Code and NOT an OHSAA rule.

Who collects the money ?

What money? Activity Fees or Fines?

Sorry. Fines. Like the Eastern example

mattash wrote: ↑Sun Oct 20, 2019 9:01 am Sorry. Fines. Like the Eastern example

To the OHSAA budget to help with compliance. As with any organization or group there must be consequences for not following rules, rules and fines that are established by the member schools to legislate fair practices and not take away from the kids. In Easterns case, the fines are significant, however the violations were pretty severe. The Activity Permits are mandated by State Law and ODE. If a coach or volunteer does not have the proper credentials and something would happen the civil and criminal penalties would be very severe. Other fines like failure to vote or seed teams are less $$ but designed to insure the process is being followed, and fines for coach ejections are to encourage proper behavior.

The Vinton County at Nelsonville film has been sent to state for review. No one knows the crew because they failed to produce grade cards as to remain anonymous. It didn’t take long to hear they were the same Portsmouth crew that has had their issues very similar ones in past contests.
Please contact the state with any complaints or issues with this crew. I understand mistakes are made but several stories are floating around that need to be validated. Thank god for the 95% that are straight honest men that would rather quit than cheat.

I highly doubt they did not bring a lineup card to remain anonymous, as the contracts are computerized and has each persons name and license # on the contract as well as position.
