ATLANTA, Ga. -- The Collegiate Conference of the South has announced a multi-year, exclusive partnership with Visaic, Inc., a sports media technology company, to elevate the streaming and digital engagement on the CCS Network for CCS Championship events, announced the conference on Thursday.

The CCS Network will serve as the exclusive streaming platform for CCS Championships beginning in the 2026-27 academic year.

"This partnership represents another major step forward in how we showcase our student-athletes and tell the story of the Collegiate Conference of the South," said CCS commissioner Beth Vansant. "As we continue to brand the CCS Network, it was important for us to find a partner that could provide a high-quality viewing experience while keeping our championship content accessible to our fans."

The CCS is the first NCAA Division III conference to partner with Visaic, who already has exclusive agreements with organizations like NCAA Division II's Mountain East Conference and Midco Sports.

"Visaic gives us the technology and flexibility to elevate our broadcasts, create new opportunities for engagement and sponsorship, and continue building a network that reflects where we want the CCS to go," added Vansant.  "As we enter our fifth year as a conference, this partnership is especially meaningful. Year Five represents an important milestone for the CCS, and we are excited about what this historic year will bring as we continue to expand and create innovative ways to elevate the experience for our student-athletes, institutions, and fans."

The CCS Network will operate as the only free-to-watch conference streaming platform across Division III conferences in the Southeast, and will also provide access to archived championship coverage and allow users to clip, save, and share highlights. It will also have integrated advertising and sponsorship capabilities.

"The Collegiate Conference of the South is setting a new standard for what championship coverage looks like at the Division III level," said Visaic Chief Commercial Officer Jesse Beaudin. "The Visaic Interactive Platform was built for exactly this, and we are proud to elevate the next chapter of the CCS Network."
