2013-32 Recruiting – All Star Contests - FCS • Source: DI BOD – Leadership Council & Football Recruiting Subcommittee • Effective: Immediate • In FCS, to specify that in-person contact with a PSA who is participating in an all-star contest shall not be made from the time the PSA arrives in the locale of the contest until he returns to his home or to his educational institution. Coaches may not attend an all-star contest or other activities associated with such a contest. (practice, banquet, clinic) • Rationale: Promotes healthy recruiting environment, protects the integrity of the recruiting process by minimizing influences of third parties. Maintains focus regular season as sites for evals.
2013-33 Recruiting – FCS – Parent Meals • Source: D1 BOD (PAG, LC, FRS) • Effective: Immediate • In FCS, to permit an institution to provide meals for up to four family members accompanying a PSA. • Rationale: Used to be able to pay for 2 parents/legal guardians – this excludes other family members who accompany the PSA (aunts, siblings). Flexibility to provide others meals w/out requiring a waiver. Limited additional expense.
2013-36 Playing & Practice Seasons - FCS • Source: DI BOD (PAG, LC, FRS) • Effective: Immediate • In FCS, to permit a student-athlete to participate in eight hours per week of required weight-training, condition and review of practice and game film (not to exceed two hours per week) during an eight-week period during the summer. • Have the same academic requirements as MBB/WBB. • Must be in summer school or be meeting academic thresholds. • Rationale: Enhances S/A & Coach relationship. Provides athletic and academic improvement opportunities, which contributes to retention.
2013-37 Recruiting Calendars- MBB & WBB • Source: DI BOD (LC) • Effective: Immediate • In MBB/WBB to eliminate the evaluation period for certified nonscholarship events that may occur in May in the event of conflicts with weekends in April. • Rationale: April recruiting weekends may conflict with Easter or the PSA/SAT test, and May is busy for coaches, so they are limiting evals at nonscholarship events to one weekend in April, if necessary, rather then extending the evals into May.
2013-15 Catastrophic Sport Injury Reporting • Source: Committee of Competitive Safeguards/Medical • Effective Date: August 1, 2014 • Member institution shall submit data detailing student-athlete catastrophic fatalities, near fatalities, and catastrophic injuries to the NCAA on an annual basis. • Rationale: Most institutions already report. Knowing the details is critical to implementing prevention interventions. Would be captured through an online portal.
2013-16 Designation of Team Physician • Source: Committee of Competitive Safeguards/Medical • Effective: August 1, 2014 • Institutional shall designate a physician to serve as team physician for each of it’s teams, shall be a medical doctor or osteopathic physician with a current license in good standing to practice medicine in the state in which the institution is located; and he/she shall be authorized to oversee the medical services for injuries and illnesses incidental to S/A’s participation. • Rationale: Student-athlete Well-Being – institution must provide a safe environment for S/A’s. A physical or his/her designee is required for medical exams and concussion return to play legislation. This would ensure institutions are meeting minimal requirements.
2013-17 First Aid, CPR, AED Certification • Source: Committee of Competitive Safeguards/Medical • Effective: August 1, 2014 • To specify that each head coach and any other coach (strength) who is employed full time by the institution shall maintain current certification in first aid, cpr, and aed use. • Rationale: The certification requirement is intended to provide initial care until more skilled responders arrive. It is not intended to replace appropriate medical care and coverage. The growth of practice opportunities that includes year round exposures and extensive out-of-season sessions has greatly increased the likelihood that coaches will be the first to respond.
2013-18 Strength Coach Certification • Source: Committee of Competitive Safeguards/Medical • Effective: August 1, 2014 • To specify that any individual who designs, conducts or monitors strength and conditioning activities is required to maintain strength and condition coach certification through a nationally recognized certification program. • Rationale: Based on the number of sudden deaths that have occurred during conditioning sessions, a minimum standard is appropriate.
2013-19 FB – Preseason – 3 hour recovery • Source: Committee of Competitive Safeguards/Medical • Effective: August 1, 2014 • In football, to require at least three continuous hours of recovery time for S/A’s between any sessions occurring during the preseason practice period and after the five day acclimatization period. • Rationale: Research supports heat acclimatization over a 14 day period. Three hours generally provides adequate recovery time.
2013-20 Championships & Postseason – Ineligibility for Use of Banned Drugs - Street • Source: Committee of Competitive Safeguards/Medical • Effective: August 1, 2014 • To specify that a S/A who, as a result of a drug test administered by the NCAA, is found to have used a substance in the banned drug class of street drugs, shall be charged with the loss of competition during a minimum of 50% of a season in all sports. • The committee recommended a reduction in the penalty for a marijuana positive drug test, as it us bit a performance enhancer. Allows institutions to intervene and assistant S/A behavior. A 50% withholding is still one of the most severe standards of any sports-governing body.
2013-21 Women’s Triathlon • Effective August 1, 2014 • To add women’s triathlon as an emerging sport for women and establishes legislation related to the sport.

After that, there is no limit for calls during a contact period. • Cannot text in track and swimming.
RWG Concept #7 – Financial Aid – Meals • Intent: To permit an institution to provide student-athlete financial aid that includes a board allowance that consists of three meals per day or the institution’s maximum meal plan that is available to all students, whichever is greater. • Rationale: Some institutions are no longer offer meal plans that are based on a specific number of meals (21 per week). Permits S/A’s who dine in institutional facilities to receive the same meal plan benefits that are available to other students.
RWG Concept #17 – Financial Aid – Eliminates Certification Requirements • To eliminate the certification requirements related to institutional financial aid. (We not longer have to certify in writing that the award was granted without regard to athletics ability – noncounter form) • Rationale: The proposed elimination of noncounter certification form is intended to ease the burden of having the FAR and FA certify it was awarded without regard to eligibility.
RWG Concept # 18-b Financial Aid – GIA limits • Intent: To eliminate the requirement that an institution’s athletics director compile and sign the squad list, further, to specify that the AD may designate another individual to sign the form for each sport.

In addition, it will allow institutions to provide snacks to student-athletes at their discretion.
