PRACTICE LOGS
Team practices are monitored to ensure student-athletes are not participating in more hours
of countable athletically related activities than is permitted by the NCAA rules. To help
monitor these practices, coaches submit weekly practice logs that reflect all countable
athletically related activities for each student-athlete during that week. In addition, the
Compliance staff does frequent in-person checks of practice.
