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 short for Central Intercollegiate Athletic Association, having 12 member schools in all located in North Carolina, Virginia, Maryland and Pennsylvania. The conference belongs to Division II NCAA. Some best things in college sports are being awaited for, especially in the upcoming CIAA 2017 schedule. There are are shows, sports events and celebrity guests for its loyal fans, and Bounce TV has recently signed up as a media partner.

It is perhaps the most unique and proud tradition related to freedom of education for African Americans and the drive for excellence in athletic sports. With major corporate sponsorships, the conference left its old home of Hampton, VA for Charlotte, NC in August 2015 where 8 of its members are located. It participates in 16 official sports in NCAA, 8 for men and another 8 for women.

The members are all historic and known for their sterling qualities, having fought courageous battles for the rights of students and the society of educated women and men. The membership list will include, Elizabeth City State U, Fayetteville S. U., Bowie and Chowan. They are joined by Lincoln, Johnson C. Smith University and Livingstone College.

To round up the membership list are Saint Augustine, Shaw, Virginia State, Virginia Union University and Winston Salem State. The brand has had its ups and downs, and is perhaps one of the best competiors in an NCAA area that is probably the most competitive in the country. Again, some great developments are coming to the fore the conference in 2017.

A great many people in the country have known it as a crown jewel in intercollegiate sports, having a unique and amazing value to sports. Since its transfer to Charlotte in North Carolina, a sports renaissance of sorts has come to blooming life in the city, gathering great numbers of excellent professional and amateur athletes in after event celebrations. Celebrities have thronged these events in record numbers, too.

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.

Many visitors, numbering tens of thousands, are expected this year. This year had a record number of visitors, and the projections this year will probably set a new record as well. This has been part of the hard work among participating schools, organizers, players and fans that create the magical sports experience that has come to be recognized as unique to the city and conference.

There are several official venues for the games, as there are many events being projected. There are games schedules for a couple of other arenas as there is an overflow of events. The major arena is still at the home Center, which also hosts professional games in the city of Charlotte.
