AB 184 Nevada Assembly · 2025 Regular Session

Revises provisions relating to interscholastic activities. (BDR 34-186)

This bill revises Nevada's high school sports regulations by prohibiting the Nevada Interscholastic Activities Association (NIAA) from retaliating against schools or individuals advocating for policies. It bans athletic recruitment (e.g., schools recruiting students specifically for sports) and requires the NIAA to investigate violations, making recruited students ineligible to compete for a season. The bill also updates eligibility rules: students transferring due to military status, lottery school enrollment, or pre-10th grade transfers gain immediate eligibility, while schools cannot impose stricter rules than NIAA regulations. Finally, it clarifies appeal processes for disputes over eligibility or decisions.

MODERATE

This bill was reprinted to reflect amendments adopted on May 19, 2025, which updated the bill's title and summary to accurately describe its final provisions. The core policy content regarding interscholastic activities, anti-retaliation measures, and transfer eligibility remains consistent with the previous version, though the formatting was standardized to match official enrolled legislation.

Scope change

The bill's scope and applicability remain unchanged; the revision is purely administrative to reflect the final legislative text after amendments were adopted.

TECHNICAL

Updated the document header to change the version from 'Reprint 2' to 'As Enrolled' and removed the pre-file date, indicating the bill has been finalized and signed into law.

Corrected the spelling of a joint sponsor's name from 'TORRES-FOSSETT' to 'TORRES-FOSSETT' (no actual change in spelling, but formatting adjustment) and standardized the layout of the Assembly Bill number and sponsor list.

Reorganized the Legislative Counsel's Digest to remove line numbers and consolidate the text into a continuous narrative format for the final enrolled version.

Added the standard 'THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEVADA...' preamble required for enrolled acts, replacing the previous explanatory header.
