  • ARTICLE R-XII: PROTESTS

    R12.01
    Protests and all evidence in support thereof, signed by the President and Secretary of the club protesting within forty-eight (48) hours from the date of the game’s start time. The club protested against is allowed forty-eight (48) hours to file its defense. A decision will be rendered by the President or their delegate within five days of receipt of the defense (or expiration of the defense submission timeline). In playoff circumstances, submission timelines may be revised at the sole discretion of the President for the purpose of not interrupting further series.

    R12.02
    Protests based on technicalities which do not affect the actual result of the match will not be entertained.

    R12.03
    Clubs which play against ineligible players and who willfully conceal knowledge from the league until it suits their convenience to use it in any protest which arises, will be considered equally guilty with the offending club and may be disciplined accordingly.

    R12.04
    A protesting club must submit a $100 fee. The club protested against must send the same amount with its defense. The winner’s deposit may be returned at the sole discretion of OLA.

    R12.05
    The club protested against shall furnish all necessary information required to make a decision, including video evidence, wherever requested by OLA.

    R12.06
    If no defense is received within the timeline, a decision may be rendered.

    R12.07
    In the event a protest results in expenses in excess of the protest fee, the club losing the protest will be billed for the extra cost.
