Summary

Existing law prohibits any person from giving, offering, promising, or attempting to give any money or any other thing of value to any particular student athlete or member of the immediate family of the student athlete for purposes of inducing or encouraging the student athlete's application, enrollment, or attendance at a public or private institution of postsecondary education in order to have the athlete participate in intercollegiate sporting events, contests, exhibitions, or programs at that institution, except in accordance with the bylaws of the National Collegiate Athletic Association, as specified. This bill would require a collegiate athletic recruiter representing a postsecondary educational institution in the State of California or outside the State of California to provide California student athletes in elementary, junior high, high school, or college with certain information relating to the college athletic program within one week of initiating personal contact with the student athlete for purposes of athletic recruiting.
