Equity in Athletics Disclosure Act (EADA)

The Equity in Athletics Disclosure Act (EADA) is a U.S. law requiring colleges and universities with federal financial aid programs to report data on their athletic programs. This includes information about the number of male and female athletes, the funding allocated to men's and women's sports, and overall athletic participation rates. The goal of the EADA is to promote gender equity in college athletics by ensuring transparency and accountability in how schools manage their sports programs and their resources. This helps institutions identify disparities and work towards fair opportunities for all student-athletes.
