(a) All misconduct that results in Suspensions are dealt with by Discipline Review.
(b) The Discipline Administrator will review the Referee Report and indicate the number of Games for which the Player will be suspended.
(c) If the Suspension falls under Discipline by Hearing, a Discipline Review will be completed and all information will be forwarded to a Discipline Committee from the Discipline Administrator.
(d) Any Participant has the right to request a Review after receiving their Suspension of 3 games or more. The Suspension will be dealt with by the Discipline Administrator.
(e) Discipline hearing requests must be made in writing to the SAS Discipline Administrator, or designate. Hearing requests must be made within five (5) working days of the date the notification email was sent to the Team Contact(s), or of the suspension being posted on the website, whichever comes first.
(f) The Discipline Administrator may deem a Discipline by Hearing without first assigning a suspension and will notify the Participant and/or Team Contact of the pending hearing. The date of the hearing may or may not be confirmed when the initial notice is given. The player is not in good standing until the length of the suspension is determined and it is fully served.
(g) SAS will not consider hearing requests that are received after the suspension has already been served; or hearing requests for suspensions that will be served within three days of the date the request was received, with exception to extreme situations.
(h) Anyone wishing to participate in another sanctioned event must apply in writing to the Discipline Administrator to request permission to set the suspension aside. No player serving a violent conduct suspension will be allowed to play until their suspension has been served.
