Has anyone here been through NCAA sports recruiting for themselves or their child?
I have a daughter who was diagnosed with Crohn's 5 years ago. It took us about a year to get her to remission but once on Remicade she has been in solid remission for 4years now. She has never missed a day of school, practice or a game due to her Crohn's.
She is a junior in high school and going through the recruitment process for college sports. She has made the decision to attend and play at a division three university.
She has found a school that she really likes and they seem to like her. She is going for her official visit in February and at that visit they will be offering roster spots.
My question is this...does she legally have to disclose to the coach that she has Crohn's disease? I know ethically it is probably the right thing to do but is it required according to NCAA rules? Our family is split on the issue and I am wondering if anyone here has experience with this.
