CCS STAFF LIAISON:  Howard Jensen, Events Coordinator

CHAMPIONSHIP DATES / TIMES / SITES:

If games are delayed due to inclement weather, they will be rescheduled for November 06, and/or November 08.

UNIFORMS:
It is the responsibility of the coaches to contact their opponents to determine possible similarity of colors in team jerseys.  In the event that there is a similarity, it is the home team's responsibility to make the necessary change.

TEAM BENCHES:  Team will be seated on the same side of the field, opposite the spectators, wherever possible.

ADMISSION PRICES:
General Admission - $7.00;    Seniors - $3.00;    Student Discount (w/ ASB card) - $3.00;    Child - $2.00

GAME BALL:
SPALDING is the Official Soccer Ball of the Central Coast Section and will be used exclusively throughout the Tournament.  The CCS office will provide a SPALDING Soccer ball to each participating team for use during the Tournament.

SPORTSMANSHIP:
A.    Each Principal is required by the CCS Board of Managers to meet with any team from his/her school participating
         in the Tournament to review CCS Sportsmanship Information.
        (See TOURNAMENT GUIDE for REQUIRED PRE-GAME SPORTSMANSHIP MEETING INFORMATION SHEET)
B.    Coaches and Captains will meet with the Site Director 30 minutes prior to game time to remind them of the importance
        of good sportsmanship and to make certain their Administrator has reviewed this information with them in the past
        week.
C.    Administrators from both schools in each contest will attend a mandatory meeting with the Site Director.

Any player or coach who is disqualified from a Tournament contest for flagrant misconduct or
unsportsmanlike behavior shall be disqualified from all remaining contests in that sport that season.

FACULTY SUPERVISION:
Each school participating in the Tournament must provide adequate supervision.  Supervisory school administrators/faculty attending the contest should introduce themselves to the CCS Site Director and inform him/her as to where they will be located throughout the contest, in case their assistance is required.   It is the responsibility of the school supervisory personnel to prevent and correct any inappropriate behavior of their spectators.

GAME RESULTS:
Coaches should contact the media in their local area with timely results.  Winning team coaches should also contact the CCS Office - (408) 224-2994, ext. 20 - with their results for posting on the web page.

IMPORTANT NOTICE TO ALL PARTICIPANTS AND COACHES:
The CIF-Central Coast Section is well aware that many other school and non-school activities (AP tests, SAT/ACT tests, proms, plays, holidays, senior trips, religious days, etc.) may occur during CCS Play-offs.  The CCS tries to avoid as many conflicts as possible; however, with so many activities available for today's student-athlete, it is not reasonable to assume that all such activities can be taken into account, and thus, CCS Play-off events will go on as originally scheduled.  Participants and coaches are therefore expected to plan in advance for such possible scheduling conflicts and make those difficult choices as to which events will take precedence for that individual.  Generally, although it is ultimately the personal choice of the student-athlete and/or his/her parent(s), an academic activity should take precedence over an extra-curricular event.
