The NCAA Playing Rules Oversight Panel has approved expanded use of one-way communication devices in baseball beginning with the 2025 season. Under the new rule, a player on the field or coaches in the third base or first base boxes can initiate one-way communication to relay signals to offensive or defensive players. Previously, the use of an exclusively one-way electronic communication device from the dugout to the field for the purpose of relaying the pitch or play call was allowed. The use of other electronic devices in the dugout remains prohibited. The panel also approved a measure that requires batters to be alert and ready to hit with 8 or more seconds remaining in the 20-second time limit; the allowance of a double first base as an optional rule for all games, including NCAA championship competition; a rule stating that on force play slide rule calls, the ball will remain live until the play has fully concluded, and more.

The NCAA Playing Rules Oversight Panel on Thursday also approved new rules on the shoes that competitors can wear and a modification to rules on lane violations in men's and women's track and field. The shoe rule brings the NCAA in line with World Athletics rules and allows student-athlete performances to be accepted for eligibility in world competitions. The lane violations rule centers on indoor and outdoor track and field races run on a curve. Competitors will face disqualification for stepping on or over the lane line to their left with more than one step anywhere on a curve for the entirety of the race. Other rule changes include: allowing pacing light technology at non-championship competitions; better defining the roles of meet management; and adding the competition manager position as part of meet management, among others.
