If the player leaves from campus to go home, she pays her own way. If during a vacation period she combines the trip home with regular season game travel, such as from Charleston to home, the school can still, as usual, provide the cost of round-trip transportation from the campus to the game site. It can do so even if the player doesn't travel with the team, but she has to pay any additional cost associated with the travel to a site other than the game site.Now that the players are on Christmas break, who pays for the transportation back home and expenses, meals to and from the airports?.........
Players are entitled to keep, and the school to arrange for them to keep, frequent flyer points and/or miles earned while traveling to and from intercollegiate practice and/or competition. The same would obviously be true of miles earned on the personal portion of the "enhanced" trips discussed earlier.I'm curious does any1 know if the players accrue and are able to to take advantage of frequent flyer miles. If the players get the miles, that's a nice advantage and they can use them to offset any costs.
