# Suspensions

### Overview

This article will review the process to manage Suspensions for your Competitions. If you prefer to watch a short video walkthrough of the process, [click this link](https://youtu.be/7bi08RaiKww).

**Note: Currently Suspensions can only be applied at the Competition Level.** The SportNinja development team is working on a feature that will allow suspensions to be assessed at the Organization level and applied across multiple Competitions. This feature will be available in the near future.
