Appeals Process
Full details on the appeals process are included in the Quest For Gold 2022-23 Selection Criteria document. Below is a summary of relevant details.
Appeals are limited strictly to issues related to:
Whether or not the Selection Committee has completed the selection process in accordance with its own published selection criteria and related procedures;
Whether or not the Selection Committee applied the selection criteria in a manner that was free from bias, discrimination and/or conflict of interest.
Issues related to the specific content or selection requirements contained in the Judo Ontario Selection Criteria are not grounds for an appeal and should therefore be discussed directly with the leadership of Judo Ontario.
Prior to filling a Notice of Appeal, the athlete or parent/guardian must first contact Judo Ontario requesting reasons explaining why he/she/they were not nominated for an Ontario Card. To request reasons for non-selection, please contact the Quest for Gold Committee Chair – James Cunningham (managingdirector@judoontario.ca)
If the athlete is not satisfied with the initial response, the athlete may submit a Notice of Appeal, found in the Quest for Gold Selection Criteria document.
The Notice of Appeal must be filled with Judo Ontario by April 28th, 2023.
