Eligibility
In order to participate in the Post-Secondary Games 2011, participants must be
from one of the two categories summarized below:

Category 1: Full Time Student

A student currently enrolled Full-Time in a Post-Secondary Institution and is

pursuing a professional degree or certification. Students currently on co-op, work-
study, or internship as part of their degree requirements are also considered Full-
Time students.

Category 2: Part Time Student

A student who has taken a minimum of one course towards a professional degree
or certification at a Post-Secondary Institution within the past year (i.e. since May
2010). Those registering as a Part Time student are also subject to the following
restrictions:
 Part time students MUST show proof of enrolment upon registration
at the games
 There will be a limit of 2 Part-Time students per school team for each
sport
 Participants are only eligible to play on the teams (maximum of 2
players) of the Post Secondary institution that they are registered to
and must be listed on the team rosters
 All participants must have registered online successfully prior to the
Post Sec Games
High school students, alumni, and any other Ismailis or non-Ismailis are not eligible
to play.

Proof of Eligibility
Players MUST show valid student identification at time of registration. It is the
responsibility of each individual player to provide student identification at the time
of registration and to have said identification available for review throughout the
tournament. At any time, players may be asked to prove their eligibility by logging
into their online institution account, in order to provide a transcript or schedule
indicating that they have taken a course within the last calendar year (After April
2010)

If a team is found to have an ineligible player based on any of the above criteria,
both the player and the team will be subject to removal from the tournament and
spirit deposits for all players and coaches will be considered forfeit.

Players without a team

Players attending an institution that is not putting forward a team for any given
sport may play for another school, subject to the following guidelines:

 Players must first seek out and join teams being put forward from the
municipality in which their school is found (e.g. a student from Ryerson may
play with either York or the U of T, assuming there is no team being put
forward in the sport of his/her choice at Ryerson)
 If the player is unable to find a school putting forward a team within his/her
own municipality, or if he/she is having problems contacting such a team,
the player should contact the PSG Exec at sports@postsecgames.com.
 The Exec will then put the student in touch with the appropriate contact
person within the student’s municipality, or will give the player leave to join
another team outside his/her municipality.

Registration at the Tournament

Each player must present a copy of their student I.D. as well as one piece of
government issued I.D, such as a driver’s license, health card or passport. Each
player will also be responsible to submit $20 in cash for their Spirit Deposit (see
following section). Participants will also be required to sign a waiver form at time of
registration at the tournament.

Spirit deposit
The Spirit Deposit has been a component of the tournament in the past with the
intention to promote sportsmanship and deter misconduct. As it is named, the
concept is to promote the true spirit of the event ‐ unity through teamwork,
community, health, and respect. The Spirit Deposit is set at $20 per individual
participant. Each participants must provide this deposit and show their student I.D.
cards at Registration. In the event that misconduct occurs, the individual participant
would lose the deposit. Participants will receive their deposit after at the completion
of their final game in Post Sec Games 2011, provided that there is no misconduct
involving that particular player. Please note, in order to retrieve their Spirit Deposit,
individuals must have valid photo identification.
