Personal
Services
We offer
personal services for elite athletes and
their families to help them make proper
decisions and identify various
opportunities.
These
opportunities involve many options. For a
small number of teenage hockey players,
their options include becoming a
student-athlete or to play major junior
hockey. The problem is that with one of
these options, the possibility of
remaining eligible can be extinguished
through several activities that one is
most likely completely unaware of. One
such rule (activity) is contained
below....
NCAA
Rule on Amateurism - A. General Rule.
An individual shall be ineligible for
participation in an intercollegiate sport
if he or she ever has agreed (orally or in
writing) to be represented by an agent for
the purpose of marketing his or her
athletics ability or reputation in that
sport. Further, an agency contract not
specifically limited in writing to a sport
or particular sports shall be deemed
applicable to all sports, and the
individual shall be ineligible to
participate in any sport.
[12.3.1]
We are
very aware of the athlete's onus on
ensuring that his/her eligibility remains
intact. We work within the rules to ensure
that such status in not jeopardized
through our involvement in
anyway.
We are
aware of the many opportunities that can
arise to affect the ability of a player to
take full advantage of the scholastic
route to success using his/her hockey
talents and previous
investment.
As a
family advisor for many young hockey
players and their families, and having two
sons who have been through it, I am keenly
aware of the various options and possible
landmines that are constantly present
which can severely limit future
opportunities. Accepting a benefit, even
the reimbursement of a legitimate travel
expense, or attending a tryout can make a
player ineligible for other opportunities.
Most families are unaware of the rules
until it is too late.
That's
where we come in.
We are
available to help out.... drop me a line
if you think you may require our
assistance.
