Under most definitions that have been used in the past, even receiving any prize money or a scholarship would have made you a professional athlete. | |

Apr 1, 2014 at 10:33 | comment | added | o0'. | I meant the opposite: I would have expected professional athletes to be barred from partecipating in the Universiades, and I was surprised it isn't so. | |

You don't have to be a professional athlete to compete at a Universiade and I believe that in many sports there aren't enough professional athletes to fill a decent field in the first place. | |
