New NCAA Recruiting Rules in Effect a Month Now


It's been a month since the NCAA introduced new legislation that affects student-athlete recruiting, especially in ice hockey.

As of May 1, recruiting conversations cannot take place prior to Jan. 1 of a prospect’s sophomore year (Grade 10), whether those conversations are initiated by the coach or the prospect. The new regulations have also established Aug. 1 prior to a prospect’s junior year (Grade 11) as the initial date that NCAA coaches can make a verbal offer to a recruit.

No more verbal commitments from 12-year-olds and the like.
