What prevents coaches from taking the kids on a team building retreat? I have been looking for some thing in the UIL manuel that would prevent it but have found nothing.

I believe the "retreat" has to open up to the whole campus....not just football players. If so I believe it would be legal. However you might have to deal with girls, band, other sports and non-sport type kids. Having these other groups involved would probably destroy what your intent would be.

What prevents coaches from taking the kids on a team building retreat? I have been looking for some thing in the UIL manuel that would prevent it but have found nothing. Here is what the UIL says .... "It depends. It's complicated." lol After searching their site, and finding nothing helpful, I just called them. Was told that the information regarding this type of situation is not located in a single location. You would have to search various sections for the guidelines, depending on specifically what you were planning. Some things such as the 8-hour rule could come into play, who is paying for it, over-night lodging ... those things. The UIL's recommendation is for a school to write out their proposal in detail with all the specifics then send it to the Athletics department of the UIL for a ruling. They would make a ruling/opinion on that proposal (approve, modify, disapprove, etc.) That is the best I can do, turney. |

Well, it says that practice time is only time in which they are practicing for a particular sport (football) and excludes rest time that can be on the pracitce field or facitity.
