About NCPAA

Who We Are: The National Collegiate Prep Athletic Association (NCPAA) is a united network of post-grad and collegiate prep football team owners with a mission to redefine the standard for these programs. After years of mismanagement, instability, and even scams within the post-grad football space, we recognized the need for real change. NCPAA was founded by a group of experienced leaders—program directors, educators, fundraisers, marketers, and business professionals—who are passionate about creating an ethical, stable, and supportive environment for programs and athletes alike. What sets us apart is that the NCPAA is member-run and member-owned. We believe in collaboration over competition, bringing teams together to share resources, raise funds, market collectively, and educate one another. Our goal is to ensure that every team, coach, and student-athlete has the tools and support needed to succeed. Together, we’re building an association where success is shared, and when we thrive as a collective, we thrive as individuals.

NCPAA Mission

The National Collegiate Prep Athletic Association (NCPAA) exists to bridge the gap between high school and collegiate athletics, empowering young men to achieve their fullest potential on the field, in the classroom, and in life. We provide resources, guidance, and support to collegiate prep teams to help overlooked athletes gain exposure, improve academically, and prepare for the next level. By fostering a culture of collaboration over competition, we create an environment where teams can come together, share resources, and thrive collectively. Our goal is to educate and mentor teams to success to do what’s BEST for students!
