Suspensions & Fines

Appeals and/or a protest of a game result must be made solely on the correct application of a rule and may not be made on matters that are tied to the discretion or judgment used by an official. For greater clarity, only incidents where a rule was incorrectly implemented may be the subject of an appeal, and not incidents where the judgment of an official is the point of contention. Any appeals and/or protests must be submitted no less than 24 hours and no more than 72 hours after a game. During the playoffs, in situations where the next scheduled playoff game is within 72 hours, a Team Representative may submit an appeal within 24 hours and must submit the request more than 12 hours in advance of the next scheduled playoff game. All decisions tied to an appeal/protest are at the discretion of League Management and are final.
