Any player or coach who is disqualified from a Play-off contest for flagrant misconduct or un-sportsmanlike behavior shall be disqualified from all remaining contests in that sport that season, including State Championships. RADIO / TV LICENSING: CCS owns the broadcasting rights for all Tournament contests. Licensing is required. To ensure the coordination of appropriate paperwork and fees, interested media must contact the CCS Commissioner well before the Tournament to inform of their intent to cover. No live radio and/or TV broadcasts are allowed IMPORTANT NOTICE TO ALL PARTICIPANTS AND COACHES: The CIF-Central Coast Section is well aware that many other school and non-school activities (AP tests, SAT/ACT tests, proms, plays, holidays, senior trips, religious days, etc.) may occur during CCS Play-offs. The CCS tries to avoid as many conflicts as possible; however, with so many activities available for today`s student-athlete, it is not reasonable to assume that all such activities can be taken into account, and thus, CCS Play-off events will go on as originally scheduled. Participants and coaches are therefore expected to plan in advance for such possible scheduling conflicts and make those difficult choices as to which events will take precedence for that individual. Generally, although it is ultimately the personal choice of the student-athlete and/or his/her parent(s), an academic activity should take precedence over an extra-curricular event.

QUALIFYING TO THE STATE MEET: The top four (4) placers in each weight-class will be the CCS representatives advancing to the STATE CIF WRESTLING CHAMPIONSHIPS.
