Specialized NCAA Compliance & Governance Advisory for Intercollegiate Athletics
Dr. Christopher Brown, founder of Brown Athletics Consulting, delivers NCAA compliance, governance, and risk-management advisory services to Division I, II, and III institutions, conferences, third-party athletics organizations, and legal counsel, with particular depth supporting Division II and Division III programs.
With executive experience as a former NCAA Associate Director and Division III Commissioner, Dr. Brown provides practical, risk-focused guidance informed by Division I, II, and III regulatory frameworks while maintaining a strong focus on the needs of smaller and resource-constrained athletic departments.
Our Virtual Compliance Office provides Division II and III institutions with sophisticated NCAA compliance expertise at a fraction of the cost of full-time staff, delivering the support you need without exceeding your budget. Advisory services are also available for Division I institutions and non-institutional organizations on a project or consultative basis.
Areas of Practice
Virtual Compliance Office
Professional NCAA compliance support tailored specifically for Division II and III institutions. Services include monthly compliance calendars, virtual office hours for coaching staff questions, playing and practice season tracking tools, and comprehensive policy development - all at a fraction of the cost of a full-time compliance position.
Compliance Reviews
Division I, II, and III athletic departments face increasingly complex compliance challenges, often with limited staffing and evolving regulatory expectations. Our comprehensive compliance reviews identify vulnerabilities before they become violations and provide tailored, practical assessments aligned with the specific division, sport, and institutional context.
Speaking & Board Presentations
Engage Dr. Brown for presentations designed for Boards of Trustees, athletic departments, conferences, and senior leadership across Division I, II, and III athletics. Each presentation addresses governance, compliance, and oversight challenges and provides strategic frameworks that support institutional accountability and long-term integrity
“Chris has an exceptional wealth of knowledge when it comes to high school and NCAA governance. His ability to think outside-the box and his personal familiarity with the inner-workings of the NCAA, without a doubt, sets him apart from others in the industry. If I have any high school or NCAA issues, Chris will be my first point of contact to guide me through the regulatory process.”
