DIII has Reduced the Number of Required Contests for 2020-2021 Season
DIII has reduced the minimum number of contests required for sports sponsorship and championship selection by 33% in all sports for the 2020-21 academic year.
This decision was made in order to "provide flexibility to our member schools as they work to reopen during what is a very uncertain and complex time. We understand this won’t fix everything for everyone, but we believe it is the right move at this time and we will remain flexible moving forward,” said Tori Murden McClure, chair of the committee and Spalding president.
How will this affect the Recruiting Process?
The reduction of contests will allow for more flexibility with most schools and softball programs experiencing budget cuts. DIII does not have the ability to give out Scholarship Money to student-athletes so it should not affect the recruiting process, but it could affect the college experience and how many games DIII schools will play and where those games will be played.
