The Alaska School Activities Association (ASAA) and MaxPreps, the online high school sports leader, have announced a five-year partnership agreement that will enable the ASAA to provide a customized sports information platform for its member schools.
MaxPreps and the ASAA will offer a publishing platform across desktop, tablet and mobile that will streamline the process of managing sports information from its member schools. The partnership enables all box score information published on MaxPreps.com to be automatically provided to the ASAA for use in managing various initiatives.
"ASAA is excited to join the MaxPreps family. We believe MaxPreps will better meet the needs of both ASAA and our member schools," said Billy Strickland, ASAA Executive Director.
Beginning in the 2020-21 school year, the ASAA will recommend that coaches use the MaxPreps platform to submit schedules, scores, rosters and statistics after each game to accurately track team and student-athlete accomplishments and also to utilize the MaxPreps Teams app as a team communication tool.
"At MaxPreps it has long been our goal to provide sports information from every team in America, and this brings us a step closer to it." said Gerry Valerio, Director of State Association Partnerships for MaxPreps. "We are excited to partner with the ASAA to share the accomplishments of its student-athletes nationally."
MaxPreps.com is the nation's most visited site for high school sports coverage. MaxPreps has been on the prep sports scene since 2002 and has successfully partnered with 29 other high school state associations. MaxPreps also is an official partner of the National Federation of State High School Associations (NFHS) and the NFHS Network.
