Been receiving some questions and concern about if a player accepts their invite to attend the NCAA NKY RISING STAR ELITE CAMP, if it would affect their playing eligibility and I want to put your minds at ease.

 

BY ATTENDING THE NKY RISING STAR ELITE HS GIRLS CAMP IT WILL NOT AFFECT YOUR ATHLETES ABILITY TO PLAY DURING THEIR HS SEASON. We have in writing that the KHSAA has approved this camp as well as being a NCAA Certified event. Our goal is to educate parents and players in the NKY area and ensure that they are taking advantage of the opportunities available to assist their aspiring athletes. Also, a question was raised if an athlete is somewhat or has already verbally committed to attend a college can they still attend the camp and the answer is: Yes, Absolutely!

 

Below is a link showing the camps available that have been NCAA certified. The KHSAA knows that this is the only weekend during pre-season that college coaches are able to watch girls play during "school" season. As I stated we do have in writing that this is an approved event and will NOT affect your players ability to play during regular school season. Each invite was provided Sara's contact information if you have questions, please either contact her or post a question here.

I also want to invite you to attend as a spectator. We would love to have you join us and see what is being taught and learn about the process of getting your player recognized by colleges etc. We have planned 2 days and times where the below items will be discussed
