Meals Deregulation: Optimizing How We Feed
Student-Athletes for Recovery and Performance
Thursday, June 11, 2015
8:00 to 9:00 A.M.
Outline
1. Rationale
2. Legislation related to meals
3. Practical application
4. Discussion
Mission: To promote and
develop safety,
excellence, and wellness
in college studentathletes, and to foster
life-long physical and
mental development
Rationale for Deregulation
Permit an institution to provide meals and
snacks to all student-athletes (scholarship and
non-scholarship) at its discretion as a benefit
incidental to participation in intercollegiate
athletics.
Rationale for Deregulation
Help ensure that all student-athletes' nutritional
needs are met incidental to practice and other
activities.
Rationale for Deregulation
These additional meals and snacks are intended
to provide flexibility to meet the studentathletes' nutritional needs and to alleviate
administrative burdens related to accounting for
such benefits.
The ability to provide meals and snacks to
student-athletes as the institution deems
appropriate allows for the freedom to support
the ongoing message that sports registered
dietitians provide: “food as fuel”

• Financial aid may include a board allowance that consists
of three meals per day or the institution's maximum

DII Legislation Related to Meals
15.2.2.1.7 Meals and Snacks Incidental to
Participation
• The cost of meals and snacks provided as benefits

participation
DII Legislation Related to Meals
16.5.1 Housing and Meals
• (b) Preseason Practice Expenses.

such benefits are received.
DII Legislation Related to Meals
16.5.1 Housing and Meals
• (c) Meals and Snacks Incidental to Participation.
– An institution may provide meals and snacks to

of a meal(s) or snack(s)] at the institution's discretion from the time
the student-athlete reports on call (at the direction of the studentathlete's coach or comparable authority) and becomes involved in
competition-related activities to the end of competition and the
release by the appropriate institutional authority, as a benefit
incidental to participation.
Nutritional Supplements
Note:
• Nutritional supplement products are not addressed
under NCAA rules in the same manner as food,
• And the regulation of them should not be confused
with deregulation of meals and snacks.
17
16.5.2.g (16.5.1.h) Nutritional Supplements
• Permissible legislation proposed by PAC 10 in 1999:
– to limit use of muscle-building supplement products
– to replace calories and fluids lost through athletics participation
• Permissible supplements fall within one of four categories:
– Carb/electrolyte drinks (Gatorade, Powerade)
– Carb boosters (ensure, boost)
– Energy bars (no more than 30% calories from protein)
– Vitamins and minerals
• May not contain banned substances or impermissible ingredients.
• Fruits, nuts and bagels are not nutritional supplements.
NCAA Position on Supplements
• Athletes ingest a sufficient
amount or protein without
supplements
• Vitamins and minerals needs
can be met via eating a variety
of foods
• Concerned about lack of
regulation
– Poor labeling
– Impurities

Practical Application
“The best approach to
fueling for performance
and health is to rely on
real food, maintaining
hydration and avoiding
substances that detract
from nutritional status
(e.g. alcohol).”
Stages of Deregulation
The New Rule
•
Educational Column: NCAA Division I member institutions are reminded that beginning
August 1, 2014, an institution is permitted to provide meals and snacks to studentathletes as a benefit incidental to participation in intercollegiate athletics. The
following information is designed to assist institutions with the application of the
legislation.
•
Since the adoption of Proposal No. 2013-31-B, the NCAA national office has received
numerous questions from the membership regarding the application of the new
legislation. More specifically, given that the legislation provides institutions the
discretion to provide all student-athletes (scholarship and non-scholarship) with meals
and snacks incidental to participation, questions have arisen concerning the impact on
financial aid legislation and the meaning of "incidental to participation." Consistent
with the deregulatory nature of this rule change and recognizing the uniqueness of
institutional meal plans and policies, institutions and conferences have the discretion
to provide student-athletes other meals or snacks as they deem appropriate and
consistent with institutional policies and financial aid regulations. As adopted, the
legislation does not permit institutions to avoid applying the financial aid legislation.
For example, meals and snacks provided as benefits incidental to participation in
intercollegiate athletics are not intended to replace meals that would normally be
provided through a dining plan or an off-campus board stipend.

Action Plan
• Put information on paper before you begin meeting with decision
makers
• Think through the following:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
WHO OWNS IT?
What would work for you?
What makes sense financially?
What are other schools doing?
What would staffing look like?
How much extra time and labor would that take?
What Makes Sense
Financially?
• Look at your costs
• What Works For You
• Starting Small
– Example:
• Chocolate milk- $0.23 per half pint
• PBJ-$0.31 per sandwich
– Add breakfast
• Example: Chocolate milk and • Consider piggy-back off your dining
hall
PBJ for
– All student-athletes
– Better pricing for bulk orders
– Football only, etc …
– Split costs on some items
– Provide snacks
• Make trade-offs
• Examples: Pretzels with peanut
– Look for products that have been
butter, trail mix
grandfathered in or items that just a
– Know the timing of your training table
couple athletes use
meal
What is the Staffing
Plan?
• A staffing plan plays an integral
role
• Example:
– Two interns will make sandwiches
and distribute with chocolate milk
daily from 7-9:30 a.m. at a specific
location
– Interns will cross names off the
roster as they grab breakfast
• Make recommendations that are
feasible for your setting
• Students want to be involved
– Enlist four extra students to
volunteer for three hours a day
– Find out if you have an
undergraduate nutrition
department
– Free labor is awesome and
administration can’t argue the
price
Present Your Plan/s
• Get all necessary parties in the same room

Administration
• “Goldilocks Approach”
• Don’t get opinions/feedback/suggestions from coaches before you present
Key Learnings
• Planned ahead
– Knew the rule was going in effect so
we started planning in April
• Coordinated meetings
– With administrators, compliance and
myself
– Discussed what was possible:
• Budget: how much did we want to
spend
• Staffing: nutrition staff, training table
staff
• Who is included (coaches, staff as
well or just SA’s)

team
• Create a message so that
everyone speaks the same
language
– Educate athletes
• Research best products and
prices for your student-athletes
Collaborate with Strength and
Conditioning and Sports Medicine
to determine how best deregulation
can positively impact the
department
Serve as the main contact with training
table and the liaison between
Strength and Conditioning,
Administration, Sports Medicine and
