The NCAA defines countable athletically-related activities as any required activity with an athletics purpose involving student-athletes and at the direction of, or supervised by, one or more of an institution?™s coaching staff (including strength and conditioning coaches). These activities must be included in the weekly and daily limitations as noted on this page. Examples of countable athletically-related activities include, but are not limited to: - practice (any meeting, activity or instruction involving sport-related information and having athletics purpose);
- competition;
- required weight training and conditioning activities at the direction of or supervised by an institutional staff member;
- film or videotape reviews of athletics practices or contests required, supervised or monitored by institutional staff members;
- required participation in camps, clinics or promotional/charitable activities;
- visiting the competition site in cross country or golf;
- involvement of an institution?™s strength and conditioning staff with enrolled student-athletes in required conditioning programs.
Stanford requires that each sport’s head coach submit a weekly record of their team’s countable athletically-related activities to the Compliance Services Office. The Athletic Department places a strong emphasis on the compliance with these rules to ensure student-athletes succeed in all aspects of the collegiate experience! If you ever have any questions about your sport?™s activities, please talk to your head coach, your sport administrator or a member of the Compliance Services staff. |
