NATIONAL ARENA LEAGUE KICKS OFF SEASON X PARTNERSHIP ROLLOUT WITH THREE RETURNING PARTNERS

Southern New Hampshire University, Snaps and LoudCup return as the NAL begins unveiling the partnerships behind its milestone tenth season

September 23, 2026 — As the National Arena League prepares for its milestone tenth season in 2027, the league is beginning its Season X partnership rollout by recognizing three organizations continuing their relationships with the NAL: Southern New Hampshire University (SNHU), Snaps and LoudCup.

The three returning relationships represent the first announcements in what will be a growing group of organizations partnering with the National Arena League as it enters Season X.

For the league, beginning the rollout with returning partners was intentional.

SOUTHERN NEW HAMPSHIRE UNIVERSITY

Southern New Hampshire University returns as a valued partner of the National Arena League as the league prepares to take another step forward with its NAL Life initiative.

NAL Life was created to provide NAL athletes with opportunities, resources and support that extend beyond their time on the football field. Under the leadership of Director of NAL Life Steven Shotola, the league is preparing to expand that initiative heading into Season X.

Education and professional development will continue to be important pieces of that mission, making the NAL's continued relationship with SNHU especially meaningful.

SNAPS

Snaps will also continue its relationship with the National Arena League for Season X.

The returning partnership represents another example of the relationships the league hopes to continue developing as the NAL moves into its next chapter.

LOUDCUP

Also returning for Season X is LoudCup, bringing a familiar name back to the National Arena League and its fans.

With its connection to sports, entertainment and the gameday atmosphere, LoudCup adds a fan-facing element to the league's opening group of returning partnerships.

RETURNING RELATIONSHIPS. NEW RELATIONSHIPS. ONE DIRECTION.

The announcements of SNHU, Snaps and LoudCup are only the beginning.

Over the coming weeks, the National Arena League will continue recognizing organizations returning to the league while also introducing new partnerships being developed for Season X and beyond.

For the NAL, both are important.

Returning partners represent continued trust in what is being built.

New partners represent growing belief in where it is going.

SEASON X

WHERE CHAMPIONS ARE CROWNED.
