Text Box: Don’t miss the January Coaches Compliance meeting on Wednesday, January 12, at 9:00 a.m. in the Hoosier Room. We will be handing out the camp/clinic packet for 2005 and reviewing the rules regarding camps and clinics. This meeting is mandatory for any staff planning on owning, operating or managing a camp or clinic during 2005. If you can’t attend the meeting, you will need to schedule a make-up meeting with Charnele. Institutional sports camp or instructional clinic: Any camp or clinic owned or operated by an NCAA institution or an employee of the institution's athletics department, either on or off its campus, in which prospective student-athletes participate. Please Note: By this definition, if an IU coach conducts a camp/clinic at any location, it is an institutional camp/clinic. An institution's sports camp/clinic is one that: Places special emphasis on a particular sport or sports and provides specialized instruction, practice or competition, involves activities designed to improve overall skills and general knowledge in the sport, or offers a diversified experience without emphasis on instruction, practice or competition in Text Box: any particular sport. It is not permissible for an institution to conduct a camp/clinic that does not include instruction and that involves only sessions or tests/tryouts at which prospects reveal, demonstrate or display athletics abilities in any sport, inasmuch as such a camp/clinic would be considered an evaluation/tryout camp that is prohibited. Owned or operated: In order to be considered an owner or operator of an institution's sports camp/clinic, the individual must be at least a majority owner (51 percent). To be considered an operator of an institution's sports camp/clinic, an individual must be personally and directly responsible for the management and operation of the camp or clinic. Promoting Institutional Sports Camps/Clinics: You may use a current student-athlete’s name, picture, and institutional affiliation only in the camp counselor section of your brochure to identify the student-athlete as a staff member. A student-athlete’s name or picture may not be used in any other way to directly advertise or promote the camp. Action photos of student-athletes in the camp counselor section are perText Box: Indiana University Athletics Text Box: January 2005 Text Box: Volume 13, Issue 1
