D.C. Mun. Regs. tit. 5, r. 5-F108
A student who is ineligible to participate in interscholastic athletics is prohibited from playing with a DCSAA member school team during the period of such ineligibility. The student shall, however, be permitted to practice with the teams of the school in which the student is properly enrolled or, where the student's school of enrollment does not offer the desired sport, the teams of the school for which the student has secured permission to play.
A student who participates in interscholastic athletics and is found ineligible to participate is prohibited for one (1) calendar year from the date of the finding of ineligibility, except for academic and attendance-based ineligibility for which eligibility can be regained immediately upon satisfaction of the requirements. Additionally, in order to be considered for eligibility when the calendar year has passed, the student shall show that all of the eligibility requirements are satisfied.
The period of ineligibility for students that transfer absent an exception shall be one (1) calendar year commencing with the first (1st) day of official attendance in the receiving school.
A student who is ineligible to participate in interscholastic athletics at the time of transfer from one (1) school to another, for any reason other than failing to meet the requirements of this chapter, shall not be considered for eligibility at the receiving school until one (1) full calendar year has passed from the date it was determined that the student was ineligible.
Any member school carrying an ineligible student as a member of the team shall forfeit each contest played by such student.
If any forfeiture creates a tie among teams participating in a DCSAA tournament and/or championship contest, a coin toss as mutually agreed by the member school ADs shall determine the requisite order.
A member school including, without limitation, a coach, trainer, or volunteer assisting in athletics, who knows, or should have known, that an ineligible student is participating or has participated in an interscholastic athletic program or contest, shall be subject to probation, suspension, or disqualification from participating in any DCSAA-approved sport or activity.
If a member school, LEA, or the DCSAA takes any action pursuant to § 108.7, the member school or LEA shall electronically submit the action to the DCSAC for review by the DCSAC Athletic Appeals Panel (AAP) no later than five (5) calendar days after the date of such action. The DCSAC AAP within five (5) calendar days will conduct a review and determine if the violation merits any additional probation, suspension or disqualification from any DCSAA-approved sport or activity. Any additional action taken by the DCSAC AAP will be issued via a written decision.
