Athletic Placement Process for Interscholastic Athletic
Program (Gr. 7–12)
The intent of the Athletic Placement Process for
Interscholastic Athletic Programs is to provide safe
and suitable participation at an appropriate level of
competition for pupils in grades 7-12. Only very
highly talented and skilled pupils should be considered
for advancement.
The Board of Regents establishes regulations governing
student eligibility for interscholastic athletic competition.
Through a program known as the Athletic Placement
Process for Interscholastic Athletic Programs, school
districts may use athletic eligibility standards based on
physical maturity and skill rather than relying solely on
age as the determining factor for eligibility.
Application for this program begins with a
recommendation from a Victor Central School Coach
to the Director of Athletics. The parent/guardian is
then contacted by the Athletic Director’s office at least
six weeks prior to the start of the sport season regarding
the application process. Questions regarding this policy
should be directed to Duane Weimer, Director of Health,
Physical Education & Athletics, 585-924-3252 ext. 6307.
