College Amateur Status Regulations

 

You must comply with the eligibility regulations to receive FINANCIAL AID

Amateur players are those athletes who are engaged in sports for the physical, mental or social benefits they get from participation and to whom athletics is an avocation and not a source for personal financial remuneration.

 

Whenever the amateur status of a student athlete is in question and before intercollegiate competition begins in an sport sponsored by the NJCAA, it is the responsibility of an administrative officer of the school where the student is attending to clear the status of the student athlete in question. In determining amateur standing of students, the following guidelines have been established.

Students are permitted to

1. Accept scholarships and educational grants-in-aid from their institution in accordance with the provisions of Article VIII of the bylaws of the NJCAA.

2. Officiate sport contests, providing the remuneration received does not exceed the going rate for such employment.

3. Serve as coaches or instructors for compensation in a physical education class outside of their college provided the employment is not arranged by the student athlete's school or a representative of its athletics interests.

4. Serve as paid supervisors of children's sports programs, such as counselors in a summer camp, or in a recreation department program. Their duties may include teaching techniques or skills in their sport, provided that any instruction is a part of the overall terms of employment (teaching and coaching shall not exceed more than 1/2 of their employed time) and not on a fee-for-lesson basis.

5. Participate in professional baseball for no more than Ninety days at a level no higher than Class A. If this can be confirmed by the National Association of Professional Baseball Leagues, the student shall be eligible to compete in baseball at an NJCAA member school. Any participation beyond the 1st Ninety days shall cause a student to be ineligible in the sport of baseball.

6. Participate in women's softball if the women were involved in the Professional Softball Association and have been reinstated by the appropriate amateur governing body.
