| Participation Limits Your participation in athletics at Mount Saint Mary's University during the academic year is restricted by the NCAA. Athletic activities during he academic year is divided into two segments; playing season activities, and out-of-season activities.
Playing Season: The time when the institution may conduct official practice and competition. The season may be divided into two segments and is limited to the following:
A coach may require no more than four hours a day and twenty hours per week of your time for practice and competition. (some exceptions exist). You must be given one day off per week.You may not miss class for practice activities. Out-of-Season Activities: The time during the academic year outside of the declared playing season. A coach may require no more that eight hours per week of your time in supervised strength and conditioning activities. Two of the eight hours may be spent on individual skill instruction. These workouts can include no more than four student-athletes from the same team in one activity, and the student-athletes must request the instruction. You must be given two days off per week. Eligibility and Illness, Injury Other Incapacity A student-athlete’s illness, injury or other incapacity can, in certain circumstances, affect his or her eligibility under NCAA regulations. However, an injury, illness, or incapacity does not affect their athletic scholarship, team membership, or academic enrollment; and student-athletes are not retaliated against if they are injured, ill, or otherwise incapacitated. Under NCAA regulations, a student-athlete is not permitted to engage in more than four seasons of intercollegiate competition in any one sport. A student-athlete must complete his/her four seasons of participation within five calendar years from the beginning of the term in which the student-athlete first registered for a minimum full-time program of studies in a collegiate institution.. Any competition, regardless of time, during a season in an intercollegiate sport counts as a season of competition in that sport. If an injury, illness or other cause (including a female athlete’s pregnancy), causes the student to become physically incapacitated outside a season of competition, the student should let your coach know as soon as possible so he or she can plan accordingly. When a student-athlete becomes incapacitated prior to a season of competition, pursuant to NCAA rules, that student-athlete will not be charged with a season of competition provided that they do not engage in any competition that season. Incapacitated players are entitled to retain their scholarship, remain members of their team, and remain at the school, and will not be retaliated against because of their incapacity. Student-Athletes and Pregnancy If a female student-athlete becomes pregnant, the student is encouraged to notify her head coach and the head athletic trainer immediately. The student-athlete will be advised to meet with a counselor in the Wellness Center, who can serve as a neutral party outside of the athletics department. Scholarship: If a pregnant student-athlete notifies her coach and trainer of her pregnancy, her athletics scholarship will remain in place for the remainder of the academic year, if the student does not voluntarily withdraw from her sport. Training and Competing: If the student-athlete wishes to continue in her sport, she must receive the approval of her health care professional. NCAA regulations provide that female student-athletes who become pregnant during their collegiate career may be granted six calendar years in which to engage in four seasons of intercollegiate competition. Insurance Coverage: Costs associated with a pregnancy are the responsibility of the student and her insurance coverage. Student-athletes who become pregnant must refer to their own insurance plans to review coverage. Students are either covered by the University insurance or under their family insurance plan. Advice regarding insurance coverage can be received from the Sports Medicine Office and/or the Wellness Center at the university. University Policies: All university policies regarding pregnancy apply to student-athletes. Pregnant students may continue taking classes and engage in other campus community activities. If a student chooses to take a medical leave of absence with the intention of returning to campus after delivery of the baby, such leave may be requested from the Dean of Academic Affairs. “Red Shirting” The term “red shirt” actually originated on the football field. In the past, at the beginning of each football season, coaches would decide which student-athletes would be permitted to compete during the season, using a year of eligibility, and which ones would only be permitted to practice. The ones who did not compete during the season preserved a year of eligibility. These student-athletes wore red jerseys at practice so the coaches could easily identify which student-athletes were not going to compete that year. To this day, a “red shirt” season refers to a season where the student-athlete does not compete in any intercollegiate competition because of an incapacity that has occurred, or does not compete for other reasons.
A “Hardship” is defined by the NCAA as “an incapacity resulting from an injury or illness” provided that the following criteria set forth by NCAA regulations are met:
All hardship waivers are processed through the Compliance Director. Student-athletes should meet personally with the Complianc Director or the Director of Athletics to discuss the process. As long as a student-athlete meets the criteria outlined above, a hardship waiver request can be submitted to the Northeast Conference. Recruiting You may be asked to be involved in the recruiting process as a current Mount Saint Mary’s University student-athlete. Your positive interaction with prospective student-athletes is greatly appreciated and it is very important to your coaches and to the Athletics Department. Please note the following rules:
In conclusion, there are many other NCAA rules and regulations which govern intercollegiate athletics, in addition to the ones just summarized. The Mount Saint Mary's University Athletics Department administration, staff, and coaches are all commited to being in compliance with these rules. We expect our student-athletes to do the same. If you ever have any questions about NCAA rules, please do not hesitate to contact the Director of Athletics or the Compliance Office.
