NCAA RULES REMINDER: DEFINITION OF A BOOSTER

A number of UCLA teams report this month for preseason practice, and August is a flurry of activity for many student-athletes as they return to campus. Team meetings are held during which important NCAA rules are reviewed, and every student-athlete signs a statement confirming their understanding of these rules as a condition of their eligibility for competition. In that spirit, now is a good time to review the definition of a booster for all of you, our loyal donors, supporters and fans.

Under NCAA rules, you are considered a “representative of UCLA athletics interests” (commonly known as a “booster”) if you:

• Made a financial donation of any amount to UCLA Athletics or to any sport support group • Made a gift-in-kind of goods or services to UCLA Athletics • Provided NCAA-permissible benefits (e.g., summer job or pre-approved occasional meal) to UCLA student-athletes • Provided information to UCLA coaches about noteworthy recruits (but no impermissible contacts please) • Hold or have ever held UCLA season tickets in any sport • Assisted in promoting UCLA Athletics in any way

By definition, Wooden Athletic Fund members are boosters. Once identified as a booster, that status remains forever and NCAA rules will always apply to you.

Why is it so important boosters be educated? When a booster commits a rules violation, the school may be held responsible by the NCAA and can penalize the institution as well as the prospective or current student-athlete.

We encourage you to “ask before acting” and contact the Compliance O�ce with any questions so that we can prevent any actions that might place UCLA Athletics, student-athletes, coaches or fans in jeopardy. Feel free to contact Dan Goldberg, Assistant Athletic Director Compliance at (310) 794-8813 or dgoldberg@athletics.ucla.edu.

Bruin Viewin’ – July 15, 2017 Last month, Bruin fans returned to the Rose Bowl to attend the 2nd Annual Bruin Viewin’ event. Open to all UCLA Football Season Ticket Holders as a special thank you for their support, fans came to the Rose Bowl and spread out their blankets, chairs, and picnic baskets on the field before they were treated to the main event; a screening of Remember the Titans shown on the Rose Bowl’s video board.

Several Bruin football student-athletes were in attendance to meet and greet the fans, and UCLA defensive back Adarius Pickett emceed the event while guests tossed footballs on the Rose Bowl field. Attendees were treated to complimentary kettle corn, bottled water, as well as the new 2017 UCLA Football posters and schedule cards. But before the movie screened, these Bruin fans were given the first up-close look at the new UCLA Football Under Armour uniforms which were unveiled earlier that day.

If you would like to learn how you can be a part of this event next year and support UCLA Football as a Season Ticket Holder, please call the Wooden Athletic Fund O�ce at 310-206-3302, or email development@athletics.ucla.edu.

“I am extraordinarily fortunate to be a student-athlete at the greatest university in the world. The lessons I have learned during my years at UCLA are timeless and valuable. Your generosity may perhaps be one of the greatest lessons I have learned so far. It continues to positively transform the lives of student-athletes. Your contributions immediately benefit the program, but the greater lesson is one of generosity and how your example will challenge the next generations of UCLA student-athletes to do great things and give back. Thank you for your gifts and thank you for the lesson of giving back. All of us will forever be grateful and honor your lesson.”
