美国国家橄球协会提出了基于年龄的运动员资格规则. NCAA proposes age-based eligibility rules for athletes.

美国国家橄球协会正在提出一个提案, 以以年龄为基础的制度取代目前的资格规则, The NCAA is advancing a proposal to replace current eligibility rules with an age-based system allowing athletes up to five years of competition within a five-year window. 对于已经使用资格的现有运动员, 新规则不会追溯到过去. The Division I Cabinet will vote on the proposal on May 22, but the new rules will not apply retroactively to current athletes who have used their eligibility. 美国国家橄球协会主席查理·贝克表示,那些已经用尽资格的人将不会被大公授予, 这一决定引起了一些运动员的批评. NCAA President Charlie Baker stated those who have already exhausted their eligibility will not be grandfathered in, a decision that has drawn criticism from some athletes.
