This was back in 2005. There was a Cal player, Mia Jerkov, who played for the Croatian National Team. She received a stipend along with travel expenses from her National Team. The NCAA ruled it was an acceptable amount of compensation. I believe the decision was based on the fact Jerkov did not sign a contractual agreement. Possibly the same rules would apply to Kurt for her play on a professional team.
