There appears to have been some discussion about whether it is permissible for the families of current student-athletes to conduct fund raisers to help in off setting their travel expenses to the Olympics.

NCAA rules allow for a commercial company (other than a professional sports organization) or members of the local community to provide actual and necessary expenses for a current or prospective student-athlete's spouse, parents, legal guardian or other relatives to attend the Olympic Games in which the student-athlete will participate.

Therefore, if your company would like to donate to such a cause or if you live in the same community as the family member(s) of the Olympian and would personally like to donate, you may do so without jeopardizing their NCAA eligibility

Thanks for the info David!

Thanks David. TAMU Compliance also has some good info on its facebook.com/tamucompliance page.

The info if any one is interested in donating:

(Donations only/ meaning no set price and Cammile's name cannot be on the shirt - NCAA rules). Donations can be sent to D and J Sports at 11407 Spring Cypress Rd # 100, Tomball, TX 77377 and checks made to Lisa Adams. With the check, write down how many shirts and what sizes you want. The store will get them mailed out to you. Thanks and Gig em'!!!

I went up to D&J last week to get 2 shirts and ran into Lisa Adams there. Our daughters were former teammates and all 3 used to spend many nights together. It was great to visit and hear all about trials. Cammile is such a great representative of all things Aggie. Very thankful and gracious while remaining very humble.
