August 29th: Off-Campus Recruiting

Ocean State University Softball coaches are planning their recruiting trips for this fall.

TRUE OR FALSE~ Coaches may have off-campus recruiting contact with prospects beginning September 1 of the prospect’s junior year in high school

The answer is TRUE

This legislation was changed with the adoption of NCAA Proposal 2018-2 and the effective date was April 25, 2018.

Division I NCAA Bylaw 13.1.1.1.6 states that in softball, off-campus recruiting contacts shall not be made with an individual (or her family members) before September 1 at the beginning of her junior year in high school. [D] (Adopted: 4/18/18 effective 4/25/18)
