Some Great Expectations Of CIAA 2017

By Jerry Clark


The northeast part of the country is home to one the most unique and outstanding college athletic league. Covered widely by media and corporations, it has given America a number of popular and talented athletes. It is the oldest African American sports conference and has closely followed the track of black higher education in universities.

CIAA is the acronym for the Central Intercollegiate Athletic Association, which has members in four states and currently 12 member schools in NCAA Division II. CIAA 2017 has some excitingly awaited annual events in college sports as well as socials, celebrations and shows for registered or paying audiences. Recently, the organization has signed up with startup network Bounce TV for coverage of sports events and championships.

With a very unique tradition found on the freedom of African American to be educated, it has a great drive when it comes to collegiate sports. It has garnered new corporate sponsors and has left the old HQ for a newer one in Charlotte, NC in 2015. There are some eight campus locations in North Carolina, where students participate in a total of sixteen sports for both women and men.

The conference campuses all have histories in courage, determination and optimism for student rights as well as the rights of all educated people in the country. Elizabeth City State University, Bowie State University, Fayetteville University, and Chowan University are part of the members list. Lincoln University, Livingstone College and Johnson C. Smith are also members.

Rounding up the list of conference members are Shaw University, Virginia SU, Virginia Union University, Winston Salem State and Saint Augustine. With all the historical highs and lows, it is recognized as the one of the brightest stars in the NCAA, belonging to an area that has perhaps the most competitive conferences. To reiterate, great things are expected for 2017 for this league.

Many people have long seen this conference as a crown jewel in college sports, what with the exceptional value it brings. Since coming to Charlotte, the league has created a sort of sports renaissance for the city, playing host to exceptional visiting athletes, professional and amateur. There are also a great many celebrity appearances that brighten up event and celebrations.

Fans will have the most exceptional experiences with the schedules being created for the year 2017. These will feature college and professional games in basketball and other sports. Diehard fans will find Charlotte, the host city, an amazing venue for scheduled events in CIAA tournament 2017.

Tens of thousands of visitors are expected this year. There was a dramatic rise in the number of guests and fans last year and the coming year will probably register a new record. It has mostly been the work of conference organizers, member schools and players who have worked hard for the recognition as well as a truly memorable and enjoyable experience for everyone in attendance.

Two official arenas for events are the Spectrum and the newly refurbished Bojangles. The primary concern is to host all projected events this year. The Charlotte Center retains the major official venue status and it has that well known address at the center of the city of Charlotte.
