STATE BASKETBALL POLICYS PLEASE DO NOT STORM THE FLOOR BEFORE ADMITTANCE It is the goal of the IHSAA to protect the safety and well being of all participants, spectators, coaches, officials, and tournament staff as well as demonstrate the sportsmanship philosophy of the IHSAA and its member schools with regard to respect for the opponent during all IHSAA award presentations. The following policy has been adopted by the Board of Control. No team(s) student body/spectators are allowed on the playing surface at the conclusion of an IHSAA post-season event without the express permission of the tournament manager. Penalty: Team or individual awards will not be presented to the participant(s) immediately following the competition and said award(s) will be delivered to the school administration of the respective teams at a time to be determined by the Executive Director of designee of the IHSAA. This penalty is in addition to any other penalty or sanction which may be imposed by the Board of Control, its Executive Director, or designee as a result of a violation of any other policy, rule, bylaw, or regulation of the IHSAA. The policy shall be enforced at all IHSAA sponsored tournaments that have an awards presentation following the completion of the event. CLEAR BAG POLICY (Allowed) **Checked upon admittance -12X12X6" Clear plastic bags permitted -small clutch purse/wallet no larger than 4.5 x 6.5" -One gallon clear plastic freezer bag

Please see the West Harrison Web Page and Facebook page for information about "storming the floor" and clear bag policy sent from the state. Also a clarification from an earlier message, tickets do have a cash option and at the gate purchase option but concessions are cashless for the event. The main concern for the "storming the floor" policy is that no one enters the floor until awards are finished and there is an ok from the IHSAA to do so. Please look for your administration and guidance in the front of the stands for permission before being allowed to enter.
