UNC PEMBROKE TRACK AND FIELD NCAA RECRUITING UNC Pembroke

is committed to absolute compliance with all NCAA and Peach Belt Conference rules and regulations. Institutional control of athletics is a fundamental principle of NCAA legislation. It requires each institution to conduct its intercollegiate athletics programs in accordance with the rules and regulations of the NCAA. This responsibility includes ensuring that coaches, staff, and other groups representing the institution’s athletics interests comply with all applicable rules. As a result, it is important for prospects, fans, and alumni to have some understanding of the principles governing college athletics. Below are a few definitions and rules that apply to all athletic boosters.

NCAA DEFINITIONS REPRESENTATIVE OF ATHLETICS INTERESTS (BOOSTER)

A “representative of athletics interests” (booster) is any individual or group that has ever: •Been a member of an organization promoting UNC Pembroke athletics. •Contributed to the Athletics Department or its booster organizations. •Assisted in evaluating or recruiting prospective student-athletes. •Provided benefits (e.g. employment) to prospective student-athletes, enrolled student-athletes or their family members. •Otherwise promoted the UNC Pembroke athletics program. Keep in mind that it is very easy to meet one or more of these criteria and once you become an athletics representative, you retain this status FOREVER!

PROSPECTIVE STUDENT-ATHLETE

A “prospect” is a high school student that has started classes for the ninth grade and also any junior college student. A student that has not started classes for the ninth grade becomes a prospect if the student receives any benefits that the institution does not provide to all prospective students in general. An individual remains a prospect until he or she starts classes at UNCP or reports for practice, whichever occurs first.

STUDENT-ATHLETE

A “student-athlete” is a student whose enrollment was solicited by an athletics staff member with the expectation that the student would participate in intercollegiate athletics.A student not solicited by an athletics staff member becomes a student-athlete when he or she joins an intercollegiate team or reports for practice.

RECRUITING

“Recruiting” is any solicitation of a prospect or the prospect’s family by an authorized institutional staff member for the purpose of securing the prospect’s enrollment at UNCP and participation in athletics. Athletics representatives may not be involved in the recruitment of prospects except as outlined in the following section.

CONTACT

A “contact” is any face-to-face encounter between a prospect or the prospect’s parent or legal guardian and an institutional staff member or athletics representative during which any dialogue occurs.

GUIDELINES AND REMINDERS FOR BOOSTERS

•A booster may not contact a prospect, prospect’s family, friends, coach or school administrator in an attempt to evaluate or recruit the prospect. •A booster may not expend funds to entertain or provide transportation for a prospect or the prospect’s family or friends. •A booster may not write, make phone calls, or otherwise communicate with a prospect or the prospect’s family or friends for recruiting purposes. •A booster may not contribute funds to a prospect’s high school or club team as a form ofrecruiting inducement or if solicited to do so by a collegiate coach. •A booster may attend a prospect’s athletic events without contacting the prospect or his/her family. •A booster may send recommendation letters and newspaper clippings about a prospect in their area to UNCP’s coaches. •A booster may continue a pre-existing relationship with a prospect and his/her family as long as the relationship pre-dated the prospect’s recruitment or notoriety as an athlete and the nature of the relationship is not enhanced after his/ her notoriety as an athlete. Such a relationship may not be for recruiting purposes. •A booster may host a current student-athlete or an entire team in their home for a meal, but only on an occasional basis. •A booster may provide a job for a studentathlete, but the job responsibilities must be legitimate and the pay commensurate for the task.

GUIDELINES FOR EXTRA BENEFITS

An “extra benefit” is any special arrangement by an institutional employee or athletics representative to provide a prospect, a student-athlete or his or her family with a benefit not expressly authorized by the NCAA. Boosters may not provide any special arrangement considered to be an extra benefit. Examples of extra benefits include, but are not limited to: •Gifts of money, awards or other tangible items. •Use of vehicles or payment of transportation costs incurred by prospect, prospect’s relatives or friends. •Free or reduced housing arrangements. •Promise of employment after graduation or employment of prospect’s relatives or friends. •Special discounts or payment arrangements.

UNC PEMBROKE TRACK AND FIELD NCAA HISTORY & VALUES

It was the flying wedge, football’s ma-

jor offense in 1905, that spurred the formation of the NCAA. The game’s rugged nature, typified by mass formations and gang tackling, resulted in numerous injuries and deaths and prompted many institutions to discontinue the sport. Others urged that football be reformed or abolished from intercollegiate athletics. President Theodore Roosevelt summoned college athletics leaders to two White House conferences to encourage such reforms. In early December 1905, Chancellor Henry M. MacCracken of New York University convened a meeting of 13 institutions to initiate changes in footballplaying rules. At a subsequent meeting December 28 in New York City, the Intercollegiate Athletic Association of the United States (IAAUS) was founded by 62 members. The IAAUS officially was constituted March 31, 1906, and took its present name, the NCAA, in 1910. For several years, the NCAA was a discussion group and rulesmaking body; but in 1921, the first NCAA national championship was held: the National Collegiate Track and Field Championships. Gradually, more rules committees were formed and more championships were held. A series of crises brought the NCAA to a crossroads after World War II. The “Sanity Code” - adopted to establish guidelines for recruiting and financial aid - failed to curb abuses involving student-athletes. Postseason football games were multiplying rapidly. Member institutions were increasingly concerned about the effects of unrestricted television on football attendance. The complexity and scope of these problems and the growth in membership and championships demonstrated the increasing need for full-time professional leadership. In 1951, Walter Byers, who previously had served as a part-time executive assistant, was named executive director. A national headquarters was established in Kansas City, Missouri, in 1952. A program to control live television of football games was approved, the annual Convention delegated enforcement powers to the Association’s Council and legislation was adopted governing postseason bowl games.

The Association’s membership was divided into three legislative and competitive divisions - I, II and III - in 1973. Five years later, Division I members voted to create subdivisions I-A and I-AA (subsequently renamed the Football Bowl Subdivision and the Football Championship Subdivision) in football.

CORE IDEOLOGY The NCAA’s core ideology consists of two notions: core purpose - the organization’s reason for being - and core values - essential and enduring principles that guide an organization.

CORE PURPOSE The NCAA began administering women’s athletics programs in 1980 when Divisions II and III established 10 championships for 1981-82. A year later, the historic 75th Convention adopted an extensive governance plan to include women’s athletics programs, services and representation. The delegates expanded the women’s championships program with the addition of 19 events. On August 1, 1997, the NCAA implemented a change in its governance structure that provides greater autonomy for each membership division and more control by the presidents of member colleges and universities. Walter Byers retired October 1, 1987, after 36 years as the Association’s executive director. He was replaced by University of Virginia Athletics Director Richard D. Schultz, who resigned in 1993. Schultz was replaced by University of Arizona Athletics Director Cedric Dempsey, who led the Association beginning in 1994 and served as president until December 2002. Dempsey was replaced by Indiana President Myles Brand, the first university president to serve as the Association’s chief executive. Brand led the Association beginning in 2003 until his death from pancreatic cancer in September 2009. Today, the national office staff of more than 380 employees is led by Interim President Jim Isch. Isch was named interim president in September 2009 after serving as the Association’s senior vice president for administration and chief financial officer

Our purpose is to govern competition in a fair, safe, equitable and sportsmanlike manner, and to integrate intercollegiate athletics into higher education so that the educational experience of the student-athlete is paramount.

CORE VALUES The Association - through its member institutions, conferences and national office staff - shares a belief in and commitment to: • The collegiate model of athletics in which students participate as an avocation, balancing their academic, social and athletics experiences. • The highest levels of integrity and sportsmanship. • The pursuit of excellence in both academics and athletics. • The supporting role that intercollegiate athletics plays in the higher education mission and in enhancing the sense of community and strengthening the identity of member institutions. • An inclusive culture that fosters equitable participation for student-athletes and career opportunities for coaches and administrators from diverse backgrounds. • Respect for institutional autonomy and philosophical differences. • Presidential leadership of intercollegiate athletics at the campus, conference and national levels.

COACHING EXPERIENCE South View High School and Douglas Byrd Senior High

CERTIFICATIONS & AFFILIATIONS United States Track & Field Level I Coach (in all events) Member of the United States Track/Cross Country Coaches Association

ntering into his 29th season as the head coach of the track & field programs, Larry Rodgers has successfully guided both the men’s and women’s squads through the better part of 30 years at UNC Pembroke. UNCP’s former head cross country coach, Rodgers took over the reigns, in the fall semester of 1981, from former coaching legend Dr. Ed Crain. During UNCP’s tenure as an NAIA and NCAA dual member, Rodgers led his cross country squads to eight NAIA district titles and four Carolinas Conference titles, sweeping both the men’s and women’s titles in 1991. His teams have advanced to the nationals four times and has coached 38 all-district and 11 all-conference performers in cross country, plus one all-American. Furthermore, as a cross country coach in the Peach Belt Conference (joined in 1992), Rodgers has coached three runner-up teams and 28 of his athletes have earned allconference honors while being named coach of the year 13 times throughout his cross country coaching career. A former track and field all-American at UNCP, Rodgers ran the third leg of the mile relay which finished fourth at the 1973 NAIA nationals. He still holds the school record

for the indoor 600 yard dash, with a time of 1:14.9 which he set in 1970. Rodgers has coached 15 all-Americans in track and field and his teams have placed third, 12th, and 19th at the NAIA nationals. His teams have also earned three NAIA District 26 titles, six Carolinas Conference titles, and 11 Carolinas Invitational Championship titles, all which culminate into 44 NAIA all-district performers and 72 all-Carolinas Conference performers. Rodgers was named track & field coach of the year on nine occasions during the NAIA and Carolinas Conference era and has also earned this distinction 20 times as the Carolinas Invitational Championship Coach of the Year. During the past four track & field seasons, the Braves earned runnerup honors in 2006 and 2007 at the Carolinas Invitational Championship and brought home the victory in 2008 accumulating 224.50 points. The men’s 4x100m relay team - consisting of freshmen and sophmores - posted a season best time of 41.00s, good enough for an NCAA provisional qualifying mark. The women’s team has won the last three championships, along with 11 individual MVP awards. They also finished fifth at the NCAA II South Region Championship in 2008 and, in 2009 had 22 top5 finishes including 10 first place fin-

ishes aided by seven individuals at the Southeast Regional Championships. Rodgers is a certified United States Track & Field Level I coach in all event areas and a member of the United States Track/XC Coaches Association. In January 2007, he was inducted into the Jordan Matthews High School - where he graduated in 1968 - Athletic Hall of Fame. Rodgers received his BS degree in physical education from UNCP in 1973 and his Master’s degree in physical education, with a concentration in Adaptive PE, from North Carolina Central University in 1979. Prior to his return to Pembroke in the Fall of 1981, Rodgers taught and coached at South View Junior High and Douglas Byrd Senior High in Cumberland County, Fayetteville, N.C. In addition to his coaching duties, Rodgers is a lecturer in the HPER department at UNCP. He is married to the former Shirley Nicholson of Hamlet, N.C., also a graduate of UNCP (1993), and a recent retiree after 34.5 years of service as an administrative assistant. They have two daughters, Deidre McCallum and Tina Rodgers, and three grandchildren-Larry McCallum, Jr. (LJ), Rachel McCallum, and Benjamin J. Rodgers (BJ).
