Executive Regulations -- Administration of NCAA Championships -- Awards
Intent: To permit an institution to purchase additional official NCAA championships' awards for all eligible members of an institution's squad list verified at the time of the championship and for all nonparticipant members of the official travel party in the applicable sport.
Administrative: Amend 31.1.10 by adding new 31.1.10.2 , page 305 , as follows:
"31.1.10 Awards. The Association has created standard awards for individuals and teams that participate in NCAA championships. The number of such awards for each championship shall be determined by the governing sports committee, subject to the approval of the Championships Committee. These official NCAA awards shall be the only awards presented by the Association to teams and individuals for participation in NCAA championships competition and shall be the only awards presented at the site of an NCAA championship. "At the site" is intended to include the period from the time access to the site is available to spectators until all patrons have left the facility or area used for competition. Additional participant awards may not be purchased by either an institution or an individual except as provided in Bylaws 31.1.10.1 and 31.1.10.2.
[31.1.10.1 unchanged.]
"31.1.10.2 Additional Awards. An institution may purchase participation awards for all eligible members of the institution's squad list verified at the time of the championship and for all nonparticipant members of the travel party in the applicable sport."
Source: NCAA Division II Presidents Council [Management Council (Championships Committee)].
Rationale: Several institutions have larger squad sizes than NCAA championships squad sizes. This proposal permits an institution to purchase awards for all eligible members of the institution's squad list verified at the time of the championship and for all nonparticipant members of the travel party in the applicable sport.
