AFCA   SURVEY REGARDING AGENT OVERSIGHT


Due to the lack of oversight and lack of uniformity in state law from one state to another regarding the
sports agents industry, the AFCA would like to submit recommendations to the Uniform Law
Commission (aka ULC) to correct this. Some of these suggestions could be made in accordance with
state law and others could be implemented unilaterally. All would be in concert with NCAA rules.
