CONTENTS
The Principal of each school, as the chief administrative
officer is responsible for the administrative oversight for
all athletic programs and participants in his/her school
CIF and CCS establish minimum eligibility standards.
Schools can be more restrictive
Principals and other school personnel are responsible to insure that ALL of their student athletes meet ALL the eligibility standards before they go on the field, court, gym or mat or in the pool!
Once CIF or CCS or the League or school has determined that each athlete is ELIGIBLE to participate, the Principal remains in authority in determining, for cause, whether or not a student will represent that school in the public arena of high school competition.

CIF BYLAW 2011. ENROLLMENT STANDARDS FOR PARTICIPATION:
At the time of participation, students MUST be enrolled in 20 units of work (full-time) at the school for which they are competing.
CCS MEMBER SCHOOLS are schools, not club teams. Participation is a privilege, not a right CIF is authorized in California by the State Legislature to
establish rules and regulations, as well as criteria that MUST BE MET by ALL students before they can participate in interscholastic athletics.
Enrollment Definitions & Standards
PLAYING!
If students are enrolled in less than 20 credits at your school but are also enrolled in another 10 credits at the local JC or another school. (exception in some cases—Middle College)
If students are enrolled in 1 class on your campus, but all other classes are taken at the charter school ( or any other school )
It is true that districts and schools must provide for the EDUCATION of students enrolled in charter or other types of schools (i.e. access to the laboratories, libraries, computer labs, etc.) HOWEVER, Education is a right and Athletics is a privilege.
Schools enroll students….. and then those schools choose to provide a variety of co-curricular activities of the school’s choosing ( not the parents ) in which THEIR OWN full-time students can choose to participate.
Your school athletic programs are for YOUR
students.

DO NOT
BOTHERMICHAEL
UNTIL you get a notice that something on your eligibility Status has changed…..
BECAUSE…..Michael is getting cranky
BECAUSE …so many of you Call to see whereYour transfer is in the……
PILE ON HIS DESK!!!!!EVERY CALL KEEPS HIM FROM PROCESSING
2-3 MORE APPLICATIONS…
YOU WILL BE NOTIFIED AS SOON AS EACH TRANSFER IS PROCESSED AND REVIEWED!
MICHAEL AND THE STAFF ARE HAPPY TO ANSWERQUESTIONS ABOUT TRANSFER SITUATIONS…….JUST NOTQUESTIONS ABOUT WHEN IT WILL BE DONE, WHERE IT IS IN THE PILE, ETC. ETC. ETC.
WHY?Because they may be trying to go “around” you and get a different answer than you already gave them…Because they tell us half a story and want a ruling & then tell you that CCS said it was ok!Because YOU are responsible for the eligibility of YOUR students and making sure they are cleared, not the CCS and not the parents.Because there are more than 25000 student athletes in the CCS and only 4 of us!Because ADs and Administrators need to know the answer to the question the next time a different parent asks them the same questionBecause We Like You, so you call us and ask the question, EXCEPT for where is my transfer in the stack or when do you think he will be cleared or what shall I tell the parents????????????
Awwww.
Parents are lovely people….well most of the time, but they should NOT CONTACT THE CCS.
