National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics

The Division III Commissioners Association (DIIICA) officially became a stand-alone organization in January 1992, after a very friendly separation from the Division II Commissioners Association. Pat Damore, commissioner of the SUNYAC, was the president of the Association at the time of the split. Jack Swartz, commissioner of the Collegiate Conference of Illinois and Wisconsin (CCIW), became the second president of the new separate association.

The focal point of the Division III Commissioners Association is for the membership to learn together and share with each other. Division III commissioners are unique in what they do and need each other in order to grow.

In order to achieve this goal, the Association works closely with affiliated organizations such as the NCAA, NACDA, NADIIIAA, NACWAA, and the Division III Independents as well. The blending of those groups creates a national synergy that allows all memberships to work in concert to improve communications and ultimately, service student-athletes.

DIIICA entered into a management partnership with NACDA to become an Affiliate Association in January 2022.
