The National Office is pleased to announce the re-launch of the new NAIA.org website on Friday January 27, 2012.
Our year-long evaluation and development process was guided by the goals of promoting the NAIA's brand visibility, showcasing the NAIA experience for prospective student-athletes and improving accessibility to membership services. The new NAIA.org combines the former sports information and membership sites into a single destination for both membership and the public.

Head coach Anna Welsh and the Bethel College softball team are proud to announce the signing of Summer Loll, a senior from Aliso Niguel High School in Aliso Viejo, California, to continue her academic and athletic endeavors at Bethel College.
Summer is the starting first basemen for her 18u travel team, the So Cal Jags, while also contributing from the pitchers circle. The signing took place with her team and family on Sunday October 9, 2011.
Her coach, Jeff Butler, say's "Summer brings a dynamic flair to her first base position that "sells" that out and is our best defensive player. Summer is also a solid pitcher with a reliable bat and I foresee her doing well at the collegiate level."
