OVERNIGHT STAYS & ATHLETIC GROUPS

All athletes and coaches are to stay in the rooms reserved by the district. No one making the trip as a part of the team is permitted to stay in any other room, such as with a parent. Coaches will make room assignments. This will not be left to the discretion of athletes. All athletes will stay in the room assigned. 

At no time is there to be anyone other than athletes and coaches in these rooms or hanging around this section of the hotel. This includes parents, siblings, other students, girlfriends, boyfriends, alumni, fans, etc. If there is a need for a parent to bring an athlete a forgotten item, it may be done by contacting a coach, who will meet the parent and deliver the item. 

One room key will be issued to each group of athletes staying in the room. Coaches may request a second room key to each room upon checking in. Coaches reserve the right to enter any room at any time at their discretion. The coaching staff reserves the right to search all bags and personal belongings that may be suspicious. 

Curfew will be set by the coaching staff. At that time all athletes are to be in their assigned room. Athletes who violate curfew will face consequences that may include playing time. At no time will student members of the opposite gender be allowed in a room. 

In bed and lights out will be set by the coaching staff. Coaches may go into and inspect every room at that time to ensure that all things are in order. Coaches may randomly go into rooms and make checks after that time as late into the night as is necessary to ensure that there are no problems. A member of the coaching staff may remain in the hallway for as late into the night, including throughout the night if necessary, to ensure that there are no problems. 

Athletes will stay together throughout the trip. An athlete who feels they have a need to leave the group for any reason will seek permission from a coach prior to doing so. At no time will an athlete leave the premises in any non-school transportation, with the possible exception of an athlete leaving with their own parent / guardian with coach permission. 

All rules as defined in the athletic handbook are in place. Athletes who violate the athletic code or team rules will face consequences that may include among other things playing time. In the event of a loss, the athletic code and school rules and expectations remain in place. In some cases, rule violations such as use/possession of alcohol and drugs are also a violation of school rules and will carry additional consequences at school. In such cases, a parent may be required to come and pick up their athlete to return home. Law enforcement may be requested for assistance. Any and all damages to hotel room property or other property will be the responsibility of the athlete and their family.
