Intercollegiate Athletic Team Policies

  1. All Hampshire student-athletes must follow all OPRA guidelines (please see OPRA policy section [1].)
  2. Student-athletes must successfully go through compliance (athletic, academic, and medical) in order to participate in practice or games each semester.
  3. Student-athletes may be subject to removal from a team for violations of athletic policies, inappropriate behavior, or violations of other sections of the Norms for Community Living and Policies [2]. 
  4. Student-athletes must follow athletic department team guidelines. Failure to follow may result in removal from the team.
  5.  OPRA does not condone hazing and expects that student-athletes and other participants in OPRA activities adhere to the Hazing Policy [3].

The College does not provide liability insurance for injuries or damages caused to others during athletic events. See the Student Insurance section [4] for more information.
