FOR PARTICIPANT SCHOOLS AND UIL MEMBERS. The penalties that may be imposed by the State Executive Committee on a participant school or UIL member for violations of the Constitution or violations by participant school student representatives, patrons, personnel or fans of ethics, sportsmanship codes, eligibility rules, contest plans or reporting practices are: reprimand; public reprimand; forfeiture of contest; disqualification from germane activity; and suspension.
(1) Reprimand. A reprimand may be oral or in writing and shall not be published in the Leaguer. A penalty stronger than reprimand to the school should be strongly considered in cases involving patron or fan misconduct.
(2) Public Reprimand. A public reprimand shall be in writing, published in the Leaguer, and state the violation found. A public reprimand may include a probationary period of up to three years, and may include any reasonable conditions, which, if not fulfilled, may result in a more stringent penalty.
(3) Forfeiture of Contest.
