8. COMMISSIONER’S REPORT .................................................................................................................... Joe Heinz, Commissioner Mr. Heinz shared with the board the following information:

• Mr. Heinz shared with the board the CIF State athletics update Information of July 20, 2020 and shared a

PowerPoint presentation to review the section and state information.

• Mr. Heinz shared with the board the multiple meetings that have taken place with the following governance

teams within the state (CIF State Executive Director, Dr. Ron Nocetti, Ed.D., Asst. Executive Director. Mr. Brian

Seymour, state-wide section commissioners, and with the conference presidents of the section) regarding what

was the best course of action for the section in moving forward with a plan for high school athletics for 2020-

2021, school year.

• Mr. Heinz shared with the board that it was discussed with the state commissioners and decided that two (2)

seasons of sport instead of three (3) was going to implemented and the calendar start date for the combined

season of fall/winter sports will begin on December 14, 2020. would take place with the movement of some

season sports.

• Mr. Heinz shared with the board that based on the cancellation of the spring season the consensus from the

state and its commissioners was to allow a full season of sport for the spring season. The spring start date for the

spring season of sports is March 15, 2021.

• Mr. Heinz shared and reviewed with the board the CIF State calendar and the proposed information of the

section’s full season of sport calendar for the 2020-2021 school year. He informed the board of the proposed

timelines and dates for the start of practice, first permissible scrimmage, start of competition, end of league

competition, dates of section finals, and dates of state championships. He shared that some spring sports have

the potential of not ending until June 26 of 2021.

• Mr. Heinz shared with the board the potential facility conflicts the section and its member schools may have

due to the challenges that come with field space and availability due to a more condensed and combination

season of sport.

• Mr. Heinz shared with the board the potential conflicts districts may have with staffing as some coaches do coach

multiple sports and may not be available to do so regarding the potential condensed athletic calendar and the

sport(s) they may coach.

• Mr. Heinz shared with the board the challenges the section and its members schools may have with the

officiating of sports due to a decrease in officials’ availability due to the potential combination/ season of sport

for certain sports. In the past, member schools have experienced a decrease in the number of officials the

associations have available to officiate their athletic contests. The section commissioner’s will be meeting with

the officials’ associations at the conclusion of the July 22, board meeting to discuss the possible challenges of

the section and CIF State announcements that took place on July 20. Mr. Heinz believes that the discussion

needs to take place so that potential resolutions may be addressed to better serve the current situation.

• Mr. Heinz informed the board that he and the assistant commissioner plan on meeting with the fall

advisory groups to openly discuss, vet, and receive their feedback that pertains to their individual sport.


Meetings for the fall advisories have been scheduled to take place from July 22-August 3, 2020. Mr. Heinz

believes that open communication is key to the success and implementation of a successful fall season of

sport and advisory feedback is important.

• Mr. Heinz informed the board of the revisions coming from the CIF State and section-wide regarding the

suspension of Bylaw 600 – Bylaw 605. Athletes will be allowed to practice and play with their club sport

and will also be able to participate and play in their high school team of sport during the same season of

sport. The CIF State is waiving Bylaw 600- Bylaw 605 for the 2020-2021, school year only. The CIFSDS has

a much stricter policy regarding Bylaw 600 and believes much needs to be discussed and vetted with its

section stakeholders moving forward with any potential and/or possible language revisions due to the

impact and situations of the pandemic.

• Mr. Heinz informed the board of the revision and waiver of Bylaw 501 that allows section to extend the

summer period which may allow us to have an off-season leading up to the start of the fall sport season

of December 14, 2020. Mr. Heinz believes it gives the section and its student-athletes the flexibility

withing the season of sport.

• Mr. Heinz plans on bringing forward a proposed 2020-2021, CIFSDS Master Calendar for the 2020-21

school year to the next board meeting of August 14, 2020, to be reviewed and voted on by the Board.

• Mr. Heinz informed the board that all the shared information regarding the return of high school athletics

is contingent on the state health department allowing for athletics to begin.

A discussion took place amongst the board members regarding the potential challenges of the return of high

school athletics; student-athlete health and safety; state and county health departments; athletic equity;

equitable schedule of contests, club sports; facilities, officiating of games; master calendar draft dates due to

new start/end dates; district calendars; the review of Bylaws 501, 600-605, modified/adaptation of calendar

within a region of the section (Imperial Valley), and the overall logistics and return of high school sports.

• Mr. Heinz honored CIF Board Chairperson, Dr. Tim Glover with a CIF Lifetime pass. Dr. Tim Glover has been

an advocate for high school athletics for his entire educational career. As a teacher and coach, he worked

directly with student-athletes and as a site administrator, he understood and valued educational athletics

and their importance in the growth of young people.

As the Superintendent of the Grossmont Union High School District, Dr. Glover not only played an active role

on the CIFSDS Board of Managers, but for the past 2 years served as our Board Chair. Tim has been incredibly

involved in all components of CIF and has been an advocate for all that we do.

He always put the interests of students first, advocated for transparency and building and maintaining an

enduring foundation for CIF. He has been a grounded, sincere leader whose positive influence on education

and educational athletics will be long lasting. Dr. Glover will be missed.

Board of Managers CIF San Diego Section

INFORMATION REGARDING AGENDA ITEM

TO: BOARD OF MANAGERS

DATE PREPARED: August 4, 2020

BOARD OF MANAGERS MEETING DATE: August 14, 2020

PREPARED AND Joe Heinz SUBMITTED BY: CIF Commissioner

SUBJECT: THE LANGUAGE REVISIONS OF CIFSDS BYLAWS 600, 601, 602, 603, 604, AND 605

…………………………………………………………………………………………………….... EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

The Board of Managers is asked to consider the approval of the revised CIFSDS Bylaws 600, 601, 602, 603, 604, 605, language revisions for the 2020-2021 school year only as shown in the attached supplement(s) and in the information of the Executive Summary below:

On July 20, 2020, the State CIF Offices announced that they would be temporarily suspending state bylaws 600, 601, 602, 603, 604, 605, regarding competition on outside teams for the 2020-2021 school year. Per CIF Article 23, which enables sections throughout the state to develop more restrictive rules than the CIF State Office, the San Diego Section has adhered to Section Bylaw 600.1 which states that student athletes are not allowed to practice or compete on an outside team during their season of sport.

Based upon the adjusted Seasons of Sport for the 2020-2021 school year, the Board of Managers is asked to consider approval of a one year waiver for section Bylaw 600.1, enabling student athletes throughout our section to join those throughout the state in being able to practice and compete on an outside team during their official season of sport.

CIF San Diego Section Bylaw 600.2, pertaining to activities that occur outside the CIF San Diego Section Master Calendar’s prescribed “season of sport” will remain in place.

July 20, 2020 Press Release: CIF State Office

Temporary Suspension of Bylaws 600-605 (Outside Competition)

Due to the need to move sports to non-traditional times of the year, the CIF is temporarily suspending Bylaws 600, 601, 602, 603, 604, and 605 for all sports for the 2020-21 school year. Accordingly, students will be allowed to participate on an outside team at the same time they participate on their high school team. As per CIF Article 23, local schools, school districts, leagues, and Sections may develop a more restrictive rule than the CIF State Office with respect to the aforementioned Bylaws.

ITEM #11


Each of the above Bylaw modifications are effective as of July 20, 2020 and remain in effect for the 2020-21 school year only.

(Please see attached Item # 11)

RECOMMENDATION FIRST READ/ ACTION:

The Board of Managers is asked to approve a one-year waiver for San Diego Section Bylaw 600.1 for the 2020-2021 school year, enabling student athletes to both practice and compete on an outside team, during their official season of sport.

This item was reviewed by the Executive Committee as a first read/action and voted on at the meeting of August 10, 2020.

The recommendation for item # 11 of the Executive Committee and CIF Commissioner’s are as follows:

Executive Committee Recommendation: In Favor_ 7 _Opposed_ 0 _Absent_ 0 _Abstain_ 0 _

CIFSDS Commissioner’s: In Favor_ 2__Opposed_ 0 _

This item is now being presented for Board’s first read and action on August 14, 2020 as presented.

ITEM #11


ARTICLE 60 OUTSIDE COMPETITION

600. COMPETITION ON AN OUTSIDE TEAM

A student on a high school team becomes ineligible if the student competes in a contest on an “outside” team, in the

same sport, during the student’s high school season of sport (See Bylaw 504.A). The following exceptions apply:

● If the outside team has half or more of the team members as stated in the National Federation rules book for

that sport, it shall be considered the same sport. Examples: three-on-three basketball---outside team

competition prohibited; two-on-two volleyball-outside team competition permitted.

● Flag Football/Beach Volleyball/Slow Pitch Softball

For purposes of this rule, touch football, flag football, beach volleyball and slow pitch softball are considered

to be different sports than tackle football, volleyball and softball respectively. (Editorial Revision May 2017)

● Soccer

In the sport of soccer, Bylaw 600 shall be in effect only during the winter high school soccer season. High

school soccer programs that compete during the fall or spring season are not subject to Bylaw 600.

NOTE: For purposes of this section, indoor soccer and futsal are not considered the same sport as soccer.

● Swimming and Diving

Swimmers may compete for an amateur team during the season of sport in the USA Swimming Senior

National Championship Meet, the USA Swimming Sectional Championship Meet and the USA Swimming

Junior Olympic Meet. Divers may compete for an amateur team during the season of sport in the USA

National Championships, USA Junior National Championships and any Regional and/or Zone Championship

meet that qualifies the diver to the aforementioned Championships.

● Bylaw 600 shall not be in effect for those sports conducted outside the State-adopted season of sport.

● Spontaneous Recreational Activity

It is permissible for a high school team member to participate in a spontaneous recreational activity or game

in which sides or teams are chosen without regard to players representing any group or organization. Such

participation would not cause loss of eligibility. (Definition of spontaneous: no prior planning or notice; an

unplanned part of another activity which has a primary focus other than the sport.)

G. Unattached Competition in Individual Sports (see also Bylaw 215)

(1) An unattached athlete shall not represent any team. Points won by the athlete shall not be credited to

any team. An unattached athlete shall not use a uniform which identifies a school or “outside” team. Any

violation shall be considered an infraction of Bylaw 600. (2) Unattached competition is permissible for a student in other than school contests during the season of

sport provided the student enters in the individual sports of badminton (singles and doubles), cross country,

golf, gymnastics, skiing, swimming and diving (including unattached entry on relays), tennis (singles and

doubles), track and field (including unattached entry on relays) and wrestling. (3) Certification of Unattached Athletes

No official recognition or certification on the part of the CIF member school or personnel of the CIF member

school may be given in order that unattached athletes may participate in contests. (4) Representation in CIF Competition

Unattached competition is not permitted in any CIF competition (See Bylaw 503.D.). Individuals or teams

entered in CIF competition must represent a CIF member school. No other form of representation shall be

permitted in CIF competition.

NOTE: Alpine, Nordic Skiing and Snowboarding are exempt for this Bylaw as the season of sport is not

defined and listed under Bylaws 503.D. and 504.H.and that all competitions are done in conjunction with the

Nevada Interscholastic Activities Association.

600.1 IN THE CIFSDS DURING SEASON OF SPORT

● School Team - The current-year San Diego Section Master Schedule, approved by the Board of

Managers, sets the official commencement and conclusion of each sports season within the San

Diego Section.

ITEM #11


● Outside Team - During a San Diego Section athlete’s season of sport, he or she may not compete on

an outside team in the same sport (Approved January 21, 2003 Board of Managers). For the purpose

of this rule, an outside team is defined as a non-CIF team consisting of half or more of the number of

players required to start a contest by the respective National Federation rules book. Tackle football

is considered to be a sport separate from touch or flag football. Examples of outside team sports

that would be in conflict include (but not limited to) 3 on 3-basketball, slow pitch softball. Examples

of outside team sports that would not be in conflict would be 2-person volleyball, 5 on 5-indoor

soccer, and over-the-line. As two exceptions to this rule, athletes participating in the individual

sports of swimming, diving, and gymnastics may practice during their season of sport, as

unattached athletes, with club teams, which are established under the National Governing Board for

that sport, so long as the athlete also practices with the school team, and the athlete is entered to

compete as an unattached athlete in the CIF-approved competitions at Bylaw 600. (Approved June 3,

2003 Board of Managers)

c. During a San Diego Section athlete’s season of sport, he or she may not practice with an outside team or

in any group setting in the same sport and may not attend a tryout or “showcase” for any club, organization

or outside team in the same sport. In the CIFSDS, practice is defined as organized, systematic exercise to

become proficient in a sport with more than one student-athlete. Prohibited activities in the CIFSDS include,

but not limited to, skill drills, game situation drills, scrimmages and games, or any other directed or

supervised instruction of more than one student-athlete by any individual associated with an outside team,

organization or “club”. One on One (Instructor and student) lessons are permissible during the season of

sport.

Attendance at College ID camps in all sports

1. With CIFSDS prior approval, student-athletes are permitted to attend two college ID camps in any

given season of sport. Attendance at any camp beyond two ID camps is a violation and would result

in the penalties described in 601.A.

2. A College ID camp is defined as a sport specific camp, held on a college campus under the direction

of a college coach.

3. Student athletes must receive permission from the site sport head coach and the Athletic

Director/Administrator prior to attending the ID camp. ID camp participation form must be

completed, signed and approved by CIFSDS prior to a student attending. Participation in an ID camp

without prior approval would result in the penalties described in 601.A.

4. Camp flyer or link to camp website must be forwarded to the CIFSDS office along with completed ID

camp participation form.

5. The section office will list approved college ID camps on the CIFSDS web site for reference

purposes.

NOTE: Tryouts for club teams during the high school season of sport are not permitted. Practices during the

high school season of sport with an outside team are considered a violation of this bylaw.

600.2 IN THE CIFSDS OUTSIDE SEASON OF SPORT (Includes summer school, inter-session, and mini-courses)

● During School Day (includes extended school day) - An athlete may not participate in a regular

physical education class or an independent study physical education class or an independent study

physical education class in which more than one- half of the course offering outside the season of

sport is in the sport in which he or she has competed interscholastically. For example, a basketball

player could enroll and participate in a summer school physical education class that had 50 percent

of its time allotted for weight training, running, racquetball, etc. Students who had not yet competed

on an interscholastic level in the sport concerned and students enrolled in off-campus independent

study physical education classes in the individual sports (swimming, gymnastics, golf, tennis, etc.)

would be exempt from this restriction.

● Outside School Day (Includes after-school hours, weekends, holidays, and all vacation periods

including intercessions)

(1) CIFSDS athletes may practice with, or compete on, outside teams which are:

ITEM #11


(a) Established under some governing authority. (b) Open to all interested students.

(Approved January 21, 2003 Board of Managers)

(2) Other than illegal all-star activity, CIFSDS coaches may coach their own athletes as

individuals or as members of outside teams except during the schools declared dead period

(see Out-of-Season Policy) and provided there is no requirement or official involvement of

their school including sponsorship, publicity, identification of school, uniforms, balls and

other equipment, transportation, finances, entry fees, etc. Uniforms, warm-ups, and other

apparel bearing the name or abbreviation of the student’s school may not be worn (see #6).

Nicknames and their abbreviations are permitted.

(3) School facilities and equipment, including protective gear such as shoulder pads,

helmets, hip pads, may be utilized by CIFSDS coaches and athletes if they are acting as

individuals or outside agencies disassociated from the school and receive written

permission on forms provided by the school or district for public use of the equipment or

facilities. If charges are normally made, then charges must also be made to the applicant

concerned. In all cases of facility and/or equipment usage, no special treatment or

favoritism must be shown to applicant coaches or athletes; the normal procedures for

processing applications for any outside individual or agency must be followed. Uniforms,

warm-ups, and other apparel bearing the name or abbreviation of the student’s school may

not be worn, and uniforms, warm- ups, and other apparel that are no longer the property of

the school must have the school name or abbreviation removed or completely covered.

(4) Organizational meetings of the high school coach and potential team members are

permitted prior to the first official school practice. These meetings are for the purpose of

information and planning only, regarding the upcoming season. No tryouts, chalk talks,

sports films, drills, exercises, strategy, etc., are to be included.

(5) Fundraising activities such as “-a-thons” etc., which place emphasis upon endurance

rather than skills may not be in violation of CIF or CIFSDS rules regarding either out-of-

season or amateur rules (should prizes be given).

(6) Violations of any of the foregoing restrictions are subject to Rule 604.

600.3. CIFSDS NO CONTACT PERIODS – See San Diego Section Bylaws, Article XXII, No-Contact Period

601. PENALTIES FOR VIOLATION OF BYLAW 600 A. Individual

(1) First Offense in High School Career in Any Sport

The student becomes immediately ineligible for participation upon return with his/her high school team for a

number of contests equal to twice the number of contests of outside competition in which the student

participated. (2) Any Subsequent Offense in High School Career in Any Sport

The student becomes immediately ineligible for one (1) year (365 days) from the second infraction in all

sports.

a. Appeals

Upon written appeal to the Section Commissioner, the student may petition his/her Section for reinstatement

of his/her eligibility status.

B. Team

ITEM #11


(1) Games Forfeited

Games in which a student participated on his/her high school team after violation of Bylaw 600 shall be

forfeited. (2) Appeals

Sections may establish rules and procedures to consider requests for waivers of game forfeitures.

601.1 PENALTIES FOR VIOLATION OF BYLAW 600 A. Individual

(1) First Offense in High School Career in Any Sport

The student becomes immediately ineligible for participation with his/her high school team for a number of

contests equal to twice the number of contests of outside competition or twice the number of

practices/tryouts in which the student participated.

602. PAN-AMERICAN, US PARALYMPICS OR OLYMPIC COMPETITION

During the high school season of sport, a high school student who has been selected or qualified for

participation on the United States team, which will engage in Pan-American, US Paralympics or

Olympic competition, may participate on that team. (Revised May 2007 Federated Council/Revised

October 2008 Federated Council)

603. OLYMPIC DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMS

During their high school season of sport, a high school student who has been selected or qualified

for an Olympic Development Program (ODP) by the respective National Governing Body for that

sport, shall be permitted to participate in such a program without loss of interscholastic eligibility, if

the following conditions are met:

● The Olympic Development Program is: (1) Verified as such by the CIF; AND (2) a. Conducted or sponsored by the United States Olympic Committee; OR

b. Directly funded and conducted by the U.S. national governing body for the sport

on a national level; OR

c. Authorized by a national governing body for athletes having potential for future

national team participation; AND ● The student informs the high school principal at least 30 days prior to participating in the

program; AND ● The principal verifies the authenticity of the program; AND ● The student makes prior arrangement to complete missed academic lessons, assignments

and tests before the last day of classes of the semester in which the student’s absence

occurs. ● This Bylaw was written with the intent that only individual student-athletes that have been

identified by the respective National Governing Body for that sport, as having Olympic

potential, would be eligible for this exemption of Bylaw 600. Individual student-athletes who

are members of a club team(s) consisting in whole or part of high school age athletes,

participating in any competitions (e.g. Super Y League events, USA Youth Soccer National

League, Championships, etc.), even if the competition itself is labeled as an ODP event, that

occur during the high school student’s season of sport are not eligible for this exemption.

604. INTERNATIONAL COMPETITION

The CIF State Executive Director may grant approval, upon individual petition, for an athlete to travel

to a foreign country to participate in international competition sanctioned by the governing body for

that sport in the United States and the international governing body. (Revised May 2003 Federated

Council/Revised October 2008 Federated Council)

605. PROFESSIONAL TRYOUT

A student shall become ineligible for CIF competition if he/she participates in any tryout for a

ITEM #11


professional team in any CIF-approved sport during the high school season of sport. The season of

sport for a school is that period of time that elapses between the first interscholastic contest and the

final contest in that particular sport.

NOTE: See Bylaw 1200 for CIF-approved sports.
