SB 305 Nevada Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Revises provisions relating to interscholastic activities. (BDR 34-1007)

SB 305 requires Nevada’s Interscholastic Activities Association (NIAA) to officially sanction lacrosse as a school sport by January 2026, establishing specific rules for eligibility, competition, season timing, and safety. It mandates the NIAA to create the "Pipeline Infrastructure Fund" to support school sports infrastructure, including hiring staff and managing programs, and allows the fund to accept donations. The bill also directs the NIAA to conduct a study on developing student athletes into professionals, with findings reported to lawmakers by 2027. These changes directly affect Nevada public school students participating in interscholastic sports and the NIAA’s operational responsibilities.
