So I’m sitting there this morning with my coffee, wondering when the hell NAIA gonna drop those 2025 baseball dates. My kid’s trying out next year, and honestly, I can’t plan crap without knowing the schedule. Simple question, right? Man, I had no idea it would turn into this whole afternoon rabbit hole.
Grabbed my laptop, still half-asleep, and just pounded “NAIA baseball 2025 schedule” straight into Google. Figured it’d be right there on their site, front and center. Nope. Website looked like it hadn’t been updated since dial-up. Clicked around every section I could find:
- “Sports” page: Zilch. Just generic stuff.
- “Championships” tab: Showed me last year’s winners. Cool story, bro, but I need next year.
- “Calendar” link: Took me to a page screaming at me about 2024 events. Not helpful.
By this point, my coffee’s cold. Annoying. Thought maybe I missed something obvious, like some tiny link buried under “Resources” or whatever. Started clicking everything that wasn’t flashing “Ads Here”. Felt like digging through digital trash. Found schedules for basketball, soccer, even bowling. But baseball? Nah. Like they forgot it existed.
Okay, fine. Google deep dive time. Searched “When NAIA releasing 2025 baseball schedule”. Got nothing but links to old forum posts asking the exact same damn question from last season, plus third-party sites promising schedules they absolutely did not have. Total time waste. Saw someone mention the NAIA official social media pages. Reluctantly opened the Twitter garbage app.
Scrolled through the NAIA Baseball account. Posts about player awards, retweets from colleges, hype videos… but not a peep about when they’d tell people the actual dates. Felt like screaming. Checked replies on their latest posts – saw a couple of other dads asking the same thing. No answers from NAIA. Radio silence.
Remembered this one decent site aggregating college sports schedules from like two years back. Went digging. Site looked like it died last summer. Links busted, “2023” plastered everywhere. Awesome. Dead end. Went back to the NAIA site like a glutton for punishment. Found a “Contact” page buried deep in the “About Us” graveyard. Sent off an email asking politely when they might, y’know, let everyone know the plan. Fully expecting crickets.
Was about to give up, genuinely thinking I’d have to call the darn headquarters directly tomorrow, when I refreshed my own email one last time on a whim. Boom. An alert popped up – not from my lame email, but from some random baseball forum I signed up for ages ago. Someone had posted a link! Followed it like my life depended on it.
Took me straight to the NAIA website. A page I swear wasn’t there two hours ago. Title screamed “NAIA Baseball Season Calendar – 2025”. I actually laughed out loud, half in relief, half in pure frustration. Clicked it faster than I’ve clicked anything.
Finally! The whole damn season calendar layed out. League play starting February, conference tournaments in May, the World Series kicking off end of May. Bookmarked it instantly. Copied every date like my keyboard was on fire and pasted it into the dumbest looking spreadsheet you ever saw.
So yeah. After a morning wrestling the most unhelpful website known to man and chasing ghosts on social media, I finally got it. Dates are out there. Kinda wish NAIA made it less like pulling teeth. Maybe update your blasted homepage next time, huh? Calendar looks solid though.
