Event Approval Form

• AT2 : Application for Approval of Athletic Event (baseball, basketball, football jamboree, soccer, softball, girls volleyball, wrestling) : Click Here

This form requires that for invitationals the number of participating teams be confirmed before the 30-day filing. The Athletic Directors Advisory Committee members and the Board of Directors feel that it is a reasonable expectation that the number of participating teams can be determined in this time frame.

Sanctioning fees are non-refundable!

As stated on the approval form, the fee for sanctioning an event is non-refundable.

A request for a refund may be made for extenuating circumstances. A refund may also be made for errors in payment of the amount due. A reduction in the number of teams from what was originally anticipated or invited does not constitute an extenuating circumstance for the purpose of a refund. If you have a change prior to the 30-day approval form filing deadline and it reduces the fee, you may file an amended approval form and receive a refund. Please clearly mark the approval form “AMENDED”.

Stepped late fees for event approval requests

Effective with the 2005-06 school year, event approval requests received less than 30 days before the event will be charged the sanctioning fee plus a $50 administrative late fee. Event approval requests received less than 10 days before the event will be charged the sanctioning fee plus a $100 administrative late fee. Event approval requests received after the event will be charged the sanctioning fee plus a $200 administrative late fee.

Important Notes

• The event approval form is due 30 days in advance of the event
• The only payment to the FHSAA is that for the specific type of event (e.g., classic, jamboree or invitational) in the sports listed above.
• Subsequently, there is no requirement to file a financial report after the event.
