GIFTS FROM CHL TEAMS
Do not violate NCAA rules by accepting gifts from CHL teams.
If a CHL team gives you a jersey or other gifts you should be prepared to either return those items, compensate the team appropriately or donate them to charity.
Being invited to a CHL training camp can be a great validation of your skills as a hockey player and a good sign of things to come in your hockey career. That career will include a number of choices along the way – we would encourage you to keep your options open so that you have the opportunity to make the bestchoices for you.
Q: What activities by an agent or financial advisor are considered “advising” student-athletes, which does not jeopardize their eligibility, as opposed to “representing” student-athletes, which does jeopardize their eligibility?
A: These situations tend to be fact-specific and depend on specific circumstances. It’s best to use the following as guidance: When you are interacting on a one-on-one basis with student-athletes and providing advice regarding their future, you are likely to be advising them (unless your discussions include an oral or written agreement to represent them now or in the future, even if you do not act upon that agreement). When you are interacting with individuals other than a student-athlete (e.g., third parties) on behalf of or regarding the student-athlete, it is likely that you are representing the student-athlete.
