OK, tis the season. Seniors be careful with the All-Star circuit and the NCAA limit on participation. Prior to accepting any offer to participate be sure to clear it with your future coach or any coach that might be involved in recruiting you if you did not sign early. Do NOT take the word of an event operator or anyone who isn’t connected or affiliated with the NCAA or an NCAA institution. As you can see there is a heavy price to pay for exceeding the limit. It’s your freshman eligibility that’s at stake, be smart.

 

The actual legislation and page numbers in the NCAA manual are listed below.
