NCAA regulations permit an ACU coach or staff member to provide a student-athlete or an entire team with an occasional meal on infrequent and special occasions, but these meals must take place at the individual’s home, on campus, or at a facility that is regularly used for home competition.
A few important reminders regarding occasional meals:
• Southland Conference regulations limit occasional meals to once per month per student-athlete
• A prospect enrolled in summer school and attending classes during the summer term may attend an occasional meal
• A signee may attend an occasional meal prior to the first day of classes only if they have arrived on campus with the intent of staying at ACU to attend classes that semester
All occasional meals must be pre-approved by the Compliance Office. To seek approval to provide an occasional meal, you will need complete an Occasional Meal Form in the Athletic Compliance. For more information on this process, contact James Feeney (325.674.2330)
