Twenty-six more summer basketball events are approved

Another 26 summer basketball events were certified before the end of the July evaluation period by the Association, in accordance with legislation regulating Division I men's and women's basketball coaches' attendance at camps and other activities.

In accordance with NCAA Bylaw 13.13.5, basketball coaches at Division I institutions may attend only institutional basketball camps as defined in Bylaw 13.13.1.1 and noninstitutional organized events -- such as camps, leagues, tournaments and festivals -- held during the July evaluation period and certified under Bylaw 30.15.

The Division I evaluation period for men and women was July 8-31.

Beginning August 1, all events outside or during the July evaluation period must be certified before Division I men's and women's basketball coaches can attend. The requirement was adopted by the Division I membership at the 1996 NCAA Convention.

The 26 events certified most recently include nine for men and 17 for women. Other events previously certified by the Association were listed in the July 1, 8 and 22 issues of The NCAA News.

Following are the recently certified events, with sites and dates of the events and names, addresses and telephone numbers of principal owners.
