Communication Regarding Concerns ​

Novato High School trusts and supports the decisions of our coaches in regards to playing time, athlete playing position, and game play strategy.  If a student athlete or parent has a concern or grievance other than the above topics, please take the following steps in this order.

Do not attempt to confront a coach before or after a game, competition, contest or practice; this is a District and Marin County Athletic League (MCAL) Rule.  A 24-hour cool down period is expected by all associated with the athletic program.
