POLICIES AND PROCEDURES
Hours of Service
The hours of operations are Monday through Friday 8:30 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. during the academic year unless otherwise posited. Hours on weekends and outside the academic calendar are established based on the needs of the individual sports program. Counter services start at 11:00 a.m.
Athletic Equipment Issuance
Pomona Pitzer Athletics provides the highest quality equipment. Head coaches are responsible for scheduling check-out of equipment with the athletic equipment room. Student-athletes are eligible to receive equipment when they have achieved the following:
- NCAA clearance from the compliance office
- Medical clearance from the head athletic trainer
Before receiving equipment, each student-athlete is required to complete an equipment sizing chart. Each item that is issued to a student-athlete will be marked and tracked with a specific inventory barcode. The identifying mark will be kept in the student athlete’s online profile accessible to the coaching staff, equipment room staff, and the student-athlete. All items used are to be worn or used for athletic-related activities only. Game uniforms should not leave the facility unless traveling for away competitions. These items will be issued and returned on a game-by-game basis.
Athletic Equipment Return
The return of athletic equipment issued by the Athletic Equipment Room from the student-athlete will occur within 14 days of completion of the last competition date. If the athletic equipment is not returned to the athletic equipment room within this 14-day period, the head of equipment operation will submit requests to the student accounts office to place holds on the student account that may delay graduation, release of diploma, grades, etc. This hold will be lifted once the Student-Athlete has returned the missing equipment, and/or paid missing charges. Senior student-athletes who have completed their eligibility may be allowed to keep certain items based on the discretion of their head coaches and head of equipment operations.
Laundry
Laundry loops will be distributed to each student-athlete during checkout. College-issued apparel worn for practice and competition must be returned to the equipment room immediately after each practice or competition for laundering.
