History

The NCCAA was formed in 1968, in part as a reaction against the perceived increasing corruption of "big time" college sports. Its purpose is to give Christian schools and universities, especially smaller ones, a chance to compete in an atmosphere of shared values, where the primary emphasis is on fair play and clean competition, not the win-at-any-cost philosophy that has come to dominate much of athletics. The NCCAA is not an exclusivist organization in that member institutions are also free to affiliate with the Association of Christian College Athletics and the much larger National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics and National Collegiate Athletic Association as well, and many have done so.
