Ejection Report Instructions

Filing an Officials Report

Officials shall file a report with the school and the OHSAA office whenever a coach or player is ejected from an athletic contest. 

An official WILL complete the form online via DragonFly. Please use one form per offending school. Each offending school will need its own form completed. The report shall be filed with the OHSAA within 48 hours of the ejection.

Whenever an ejection occurs, the ejecting official shall speak with the offender's principal/athletic director on site if possible, but no later than the first school day following the ejection. An official failing to follow the ejection protocol and/or failing to file the Official's Report may be penalized in accordance with Section VIII.A.5 of the OHSAA Handbook for Officials.

The "Sportsmanship Report" form is also used to report good or poor sportsmanship, severe injuries, facility problems, or equipment problems. The "Facility Report" is used for any facility problems or equipment concerns. Ejections other than players or coaches and other items of which the OHSAA should be made aware must be provided.

The reporting official will receive notification of resolution upon receipt of the reported school's reply.

To complete your Ejection Form, go to DragonFly. The next step is to go to the contest. Under game details, scroll down to "Add a Document." Select the report and fill in the areas provided for official only. There is a separate section for the school response and a third area for OHSAA. Keep the details of your entry factual and to the point.
