In-Season (During the Playing Season):

Weekly Limit: A maximum of 20 hours per week.

Daily Limit: A maximum of 4 hours per day.

Required Day Off: Student-athletes must have at least one calendar day off per week.

Competition Day: A day of competition, along with any associated activities, counts as 3 hours, regardless of the actual duration.

No Practice After Competition: No practice activities may be held after a competition, except between contests in a multi-day or multi-event competition (e.g., a doubleheader).

No Missed Class: No class time can be missed for practice activities unless the team is traveling to an away contest and the practice is in conjunction with the contest.

Preseason Exception: The daily and weekly hour limitations do not apply to countable athletically related activities that occur during preseason practice before the first day of classes or the first scheduled contest, whichever comes first.

Off-Season (During the Academic Year):

Weekly Limit: A maximum of 8 hours per week.

Skill Instruction: Of the 8 hours, no more than 2 hours per week can be spent on individual skill workouts.

Required Days Off: Student-athletes must have at least two calendar days off per week.

It is important to note that these are the general rules. Specific regulations can vary slightly, and institutions and conferences may have their own additional policies. "Countable athletically related activities" include things like practice, competition, team meetings, required conditioning, and film review. "Voluntary" activities, initiated solely by the student-athlete without any requirement or supervision from a coach, do not count towards these limits.
