The National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA) is a governing body of small athletic programs that are dedicated to character-driven intercollegiate sports.
The student-athlete is the center of all NAIA experience. Each year more than 60,000 student-athletes have the opportunity to play college sports at NAIA member institutions.
The NAIA seeks to create an environment in which every student-athlete, coach, official, and spectator is committed to the true spirit of competition.
