Athletic Eligibility

• Permission of parent(s) or legal guardian for early sports dismissal. Encinal High School athletes are excused early for some athletic events. Students are responsible for missed assignments and class work.
• Permission of parent(s) or legal guardian for transportation. Students are transported to these events on buses and school vans, utilizing parent drivers and student drivers in some cases.
• Transferring from one school to another school may affect a student’s athletic eligibility under North Coast Section and/or CIF rules. It is the student’s responsibility to see the Athletic Director for specific rules/regulations.
•  A student on a high school team becomes ineligible if he/she plays on an “outside” team in the same sport during the student’s high school season of sport. (NCS: Article 6, Sec. 600)
