| The men’s basketball coaches would like to have contact with a couple of top prospects this weekend. These prospects are participating in a non-institutional camp friday and saturday.
Since the camp ends at 4pm on Saturday, the coaches can have contact with the prospects at 5pm on Saturday. A. True B. False The answer is B. NCAA Official Interpretation- 12/5/13- Contact Restrictions Prior to Camps or Clinics (I) – states that for purposes of contact restrictions on the day or days of a prospective student-athlete’s competition, a noninstitutional, private camp or clinic is considered an athletics competition or athletics event and an institutional camp or clinic is not considered an athletics competition or event. Therefore, in sports other than basketball, a coaching staff member may make recruiting contacts during a permissible contact period with a prospective student-athlete participating in a noninstitutional, private camp or clinic only after the completion of activities on the final day of the camp or clinic. Conversely, official or unofficial visits may occur on an institution’s campus on the day of an institutional camp or clinic before the camp or clinic begins.
