WESTWOOD, Mass. – The NEWMAC is thrilled to announce its partnership with SIDEARM Sports, a Learfield IMG College company, and unveil the official launch of the new home to NEWMACSports.com as of Tuesday, March 7, 2023.
 
As part of the NEWMAC’s strategic plan and efforts to enhance the conference brand, the decision to develop a new home for NEWMACSports.com came in the Spring of 2023 after numerous discussions within the membership and internally in the conference office. “It is a bittersweet moment as one of the co-founders of PrestoSports to make the decision to switch providers to SIDEARM Sports,” expresses NEWMAC Executive Director, Patrick B. Summers. “It is without question that SIDEARM is the leader in this industry highlighting the essential areas of technical, graphic design and customer service. I commend my long-time friend and President of SIDEARM, Jeff Rubin for capturing this market and providing a platform where we can promote our student-athletes and programs. We are excited to launch our new site and begin what I hope is long standing relationship with the SIDEARM team.”
