90 GEORGIA HIGH SCHOOL ASSOCIATION<br />

INTERPRETATIONS, 4.00 SECTION<br />

• SITUATION: A school that is hosting a GHSA playoff event wants to<br />

sell GHSA merchandise and/or school merchandise at the event. Is<br />

that legal?<br />

RULING: No. Broadcast rights and merchandising rights for regular<br />

season events rest with the host school. When state playoffs begin,<br />

those rights belong to the GHSA. Any merchandise using the name<br />

or the marks of the GHSA or mentioning the playoffs must be sold by<br />

GHSA-approved merchandisers.<br />

• SITUATION: A school that is hosting a GHSA playoff event wants free<br />

admission for all people who normally are given free admission at<br />

regular season events. Is this permissible?<br />

RULING: No. At GHSA playoff events only those people holding<br />

GHSA passes or valid media passes are allowed free admission.
