<p>Can the coach sanction and coordinate a player spending the night with a team member on an unofficial visit? In my case, the coach has invited my D for an unofficial visit.</p>
<p>No. An unofficial visit would be coordinated by you. Basically, if the coach is encouraging an unofficial visit, he is encouraging your daughter to meet with him at the college. No more no less. The best part is the coach will be free to discuss just about anything during the unofficial visit, and there is no time limitaton. Your daughter will be responisble for any travel, hotel or eating arrangements. If she can stay with friends or family on campus, so much the better. Official Visits would be coordinated by the Coach on your behalf, any you are limited to 48 hours on campus.</p>
<p>Junior Days are typically different. All the arrangements are made by the college and coaches. JUnior Days typcially bring in a bunch of recruits that get an academic and athletic sales pitch from various deans, admissions and coaches that collaborate on the effort. </p>
<p>Official visit… Any visit to a college campus by you and your parents paid for by the college. The college may pay all or some ofthe following expenses: </p>
<p>• Your transportation to and from the college
• Room and meals (three per day) while you are visiting the college
• Reasonable entertainment expenses, including three complimentary admissions to a home athletics contest. </p>
<p>Before a college may invite you on an official visit, you will have to provide the college with a copy of your high school transcript (Division I only) and ACT, SAT or PLAN score and register with the NCAA Eligibility Center.</p>
<p>Unofficial Visit…Unofficial visit. Any visit by you and your parents to a college campus paid for by you or your parents. The only expense you may receive from the college is three complimentary admissions to a home athletics contest. You may make as many unofficial visits as you like and may take those visits at any time. The only time you cannot talk with a coach during an unofficial visit is during a dead period.</p>
