The tip of the week this week comes from Chapter 17 on playing and practice seasons. Please remember that when we have a home contest, student-athletes cannot miss class time for practice activities on that day.
From Bylaw 17.1.6.6.1 on practice activities:
June 11, 2010

The committee determined that a student-athlete may not miss class at any time (e.g., regular academic term, mini term, summer term) for practice activities, except when a team is traveling to an away-from-home contest and the practice is in conjunction with the contest.
