Prohibited Categories Quick Card

A one-page reference to what Rule 5-7 prohibits and what a violation costs: all seven restricted categories, the four other prohibitions, the procedural duties under 5-7.4, and the by-law Q&A answers on player-of-the-week promotions and performance-based fundraising. Explains why the 365-day penalty is not the ceiling where an arrangement looks like a recruiting inducement.

PBA Decision Flowchart

An eight-step decision aid for evaluating a Personal Branding Activity before signing anything. Covers school identity, uniforms and equipment, the seven restricted categories, the recruiting question, PBA collectives, boosters and staff, performance-tied pay, athletic services, and the 48-hour athletic director notification. Includes the Rule 20 exposure that the 365-day cap does not limit. A summary, not the rule.
