The NCAA<\/a> Division I Administrative Committee voted in favor of a proposal that paves the way for athletes to place wagers on professional sports.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The proposal still has to receive clearance from Division II and III before it can go into effect. Those panels are expected to vote on the matter during their meetings later this month.<\/p>\n

If the proposal gains final approval, the change could take effect as early as Nov. 1. However, collegiate athletes would continue to be barred from gambling on college sports.<\/a><\/p>\n

“The Administrative Committee was clear in its discussion today that it remains concerned about the risks associated with all forms of sports gambling, but ultimately voted to reduce restrictions on student-athletes in this area to better align with their campus peers,” Illinois athletic director and committee chair Josh Whitman said.<\/p>\n

“This change allows the NCAA, the conferences and the member schools to focus on protecting the integrity of college games while, at the same time, encouraging healthy habits for student-athletes who choose to engage in betting activities on professional sports.”<\/p>\n

The NCAA also prohibits sharing information about college competitions with bettors. The institution also doesn\u2019t allow advertising and sponsorships of NCAA championships by betting sites.<\/p>\n

Despite the potential change, the committee emphasized that it doesn\u2019t endorse betting on sports particularly for student-athletes.<\/p>\n

“Division I members are actively working to deregulate NCAA rules where possible, and the Division I Board of Directors remains focused on preserving rules that directly speak to the fairness of college sports competition and the academic successes of college athletes,” Virginia Tech President Tim Sands said. “While NCAA members do not encourage student-athletes to engage in sports betting behaviors of any kind, the timing is right to modernize these rules by removing prohibitions against betting on professional sports and focusing on harm reduction strategies for behaviors that do not impact college sports directly.”<\/p>\n

The change comes as NCAA enforcement caseloads involving sports betting violations<\/a> have increased in recent years.<\/p>\n
