Teammates are allowed to travel with teammates as long as arrangements are not made at the direction of the coaching staff, boosters are not involved in providing any kind of expenses, and the student-athletes do not receive any other type of extra benefits. See Bylaw 16.02.3 below for more information on the definition of an extra benefit.Â
16.02.3 Extra Benefit. [A] An extra benefit is any special arrangement by an institutional employee or representative of the institution's athletics interests to provide a student-athlete or the student-athlete family member or friend a benefit not expressly authorized by NCAA legislation. Receipt of a benefit by student-athletes or their family members or friends is not a violation of NCAA legislation if it is demonstrated that the same benefit is generally available to the institution's students or their family members or friends or to a particular segment of the student body (e.g., international students, minority students) determined on a basis unrelated to athletics ability.
