The site includes information regarding pre-game activities, information about the city of Rome, the history of the game and ticket sales.
"We are excited about the Web site and the ability to share the story of the game with the public," said Shorter College Athletic Director Bill Peterson, co-chair of the host committee. "Not only will the site provide information surrounding the events of the game, but football fans can now begin buying tickets. We believe it will be an exceptional resource for NAIA fans in the coming months."
The NAIA Football National Championship will be played on Dec. 20, while the 2009 event will be on Dec. 19. Both championship titles will be played at Barron Stadium, home to the Shorter College Hawks.
The site was designed and developed by Shorter College's Web manager Dana Thompson. Other individuals involved with the project were Peterson; Dawn Tolbert, the college's director of institutional relations; Jim O'Hara, Rome News-Tribune sports editor; and Grant Kersey, Shorter's sports information director.
