Recruiting research often raises questions about eligibility, transfers and the rules that apply to a particular school or sports program. For Canadian families, it helps to keep those questions organized. This resource hub is the home for our articles on NCAA, NAIA and NJCAA recruiting rules, eligibility topics, transfer information and policy updates as they are published. Start with the transfer portal guide below. Use this page to find relevant reading and prepare questions. It is a guide to our resources, not a statement of the current rules or a decision about any athlete’s eligibility.
An article can help you understand a topic, but your next step may depend on the school, sports association and your own situation. Note which organization an article discusses and check its publication or update date as you read.
The resources in this section give Canadian athletes and parents a place to begin their research. Take questions about your own case to the school’s compliance or admissions staff and the relevant sports association. This hub does not replace their current guidance or explain every rule.
Start with our article on the NCAA transfer portal and what it means for recruiting research. Read it in context, then confirm any details that could affect your athlete with the appropriate school or organization.
