Southern Athletic Association
The Southern Athletic Association (SAA) is an intercollegiate athletic conference that competes in the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Division III that began play in the 2012–13 school year. It was formed in 2011 by seven former members of the Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference and independent Berry College.
On March 9, 2023, Trinity University and Southwestern University of Texas announced they would join the SAA as full members, beginning in the 2025–26 academic year.
On May 26, 2024, Birmingham–Southern College announced that it would close at the end of the 2023–24 school year (more precisely, on May 31 of that year).
On June 11, 2024, Hendrix College announced it would return to the Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference (SCAC) at the end of the 2024–25 school year.
On July 23, 2024, Maryville College was accepted to the SAA as a full member, to join beginning in the 2026–27 academic year. Maryville's football and women's golf would join SAA competition as an associate member, beginning 2025–26.
Every member in the history of the SAA, whether current, former, full, or associate, has been a private school.
The SAA currently has eight full members.
Two schools, the University of Chicago and Washington University in St. Louis (WashU), announced their intention to become affiliate members of the conference for football, effective in 2015. Both are members of the University Athletic Association (UAA), which at the time had a football scheduling alliance with the North Coast Athletic Conference (NCAC). However, after the 2012 season, the NCAC adopted a full round-robin football schedule, making it impossible for that conference to fill in all of its non-conference dates with the four UAA members that sponsor the sport.
