Florida Approves NIL Compensation for High School Athletes

The FHSAA's unanimous vote allows student-athletes to profit from their name, image, and likeness starting in the 2024-25 school year.

Florida becomes the 36th state to permit high school athletes to receive NIL payments.
Student-athletes cannot use school logos, uniforms, or mascots in NIL deals.
Transfers during a sport season are restricted from NIL agreements for that season.
Prohibitions include deals with adult entertainment, gambling, and political activism.
Concerns remain about NIL collectives and their impact on high school sports funding.
