PrestoSports and the National Junior College Athletic Association announced the expansion of their eight-year strategic partnership to enhance the fan experience. The NJCAA is committed to providing members the tools and opportunities to support and develop their athletic programs. As a leader in championing academic and athletic opportunities for student-athletes, this exclusive partnership will also empower member schools to support and elevate their athletes and improve the fan experience.

“The impact of this partnership will be felt nationwide as our members are provided with unprecedented benefits,” stated Dr. Christopher Parker, NJCAA President & CEO. “Because of the continued commitment from PrestoSports, we are able to elevate the overall vision of the NJCAA while enhancing the available resources that our members utilize on a day to day basis.”

This exclusive partnership names PrestoSports as the official website, streaming, stats, and camps management software provider for the NJCAA. PrestoSports will continue to host the NJCAA website and stats platform for the association as they’ve done since 2014. NJCAA member colleges will now receive special pricing on PrestoSports’ All-in-One solution as well as website hosting, website design, streaming and production software, stats, and camps management solutions.

“At PrestoSports, we believe strongly in empowering athletics programs of all sizes with the tools and capabilities to engage their fans and build their brands,” stated Keith Womack, President of PrestoSports. “By expanding our partnership with the NJCAA and its 24 regions, we are proud to be serving many of the most dedicated fans and student-athletes with leading technology and innovation. This is a remarkable partnership that we are honored to continue.”

As a part of this expanded relationship, PrestoSports will introduce the official NJCAA Digital Network and OTT app this fall. The OTT app will provide NJCAA members with the ability to stream their games and events on the official NJCAA OTT app on Roku, Apple TV, Amazon FireTV, and Android TV.

PrestoSports will also provide tremendous benefits for those working within the platform every day. As the only national collegiate athletic organization dedicated to two-year college athletics, the NJCAA is committed to providing best-in-class technology to their member schools. This is why they made the strategic decision to provide an all-in-one sports technology platform to their schools.
