Athletic Rules
Students are eligible to participate in the Dixon Catholic athletic program until they turn thirteen on or before August 15th, preceding the season, in the 5th-6th grade. Students who turn 15 years of age on or before August 15th preceding the season, cannot compete in any conference game.
Participants must submit a completed physical examination prior to participating in the year's program.
Students are required to provide their own transportation to athletic events. The school assumes no such responsibilities unless otherwise notified.
Boys and girls wishing to participate in sports and/or extracurricular activities must maintain an acceptable grade average in their class work and conduct. This acceptability is based upon ability, effort, attitude, and completion of assignments.
If a student is receiving, in any one subject, a grade less than C, the student is ineligible to participate until the grade is raised. If the student does not accomplish this within two weeks, it may become necessary for the activity to be dropped so more time is available for study. If however, a student experiences difficulty in meeting this requirement, the teacher(s) and principal will determine whether the student is working to the best of his/her ability.
Students may not participate in athletic competitions if not in school the day of the competition or did not participate in physical education that week or has displayed physical impairment.
Each participant’s eligibility will be handed into the office on Friday of each week. Notification regarding ineligible students will be given to the person coaching or supervising the activity.
