NCAA Clearing House Hotline
by Jim Herb
for Volleyball Southern California Style
There is a new service directly from
the NCAA to help high school student athletes and their parents with the
NCAA recruiting process. This is a very valuable service being provided
from the NCAA and contains a tremendous amount of valuable information
for you. This is a touch tone, menu driving system that will allow you
to hear pre-recorded messages in many areas of the recruiting process.
Currently topic include; General Recruiting Rules, NCAA Clearinghouse Information,
Freshman Eligibility Standards and Transfer Rules. The NCAA Hotline is
from recent increased efforts of the NCAA to make PSA's (Prospective Student
Athlete's) aware of recruiting guidelines and eligibility requirements.
The target of this hotline is PSA's, their parents and their HS or club
coaches. This is a toll free number and I urge every one to take advantage
of this NCAA offering and keep the toll free number handy. You can also
use this number to order some free publications such as the "NCAA Guide
for the College Bound Student Athlete" or even your NCAA Clearinghouse
registration packet. You also are given phone numbers of different offices
within the NCAA organization such as Legislative Services to handle specific
questions and concerns. The toll free number for this NCAA service is (800)
638-3731.
