MANCHESTER, N.H. – The official website of Southern New Hampshire University athletics (
www.snhupenmen.com) re-launched Thursday with a brand new design and a brand new provider. The website was designed by SIDEARM Sports (
www.sidearmsports.com), the industry leader in collegiate athletic websites with more than 1,100 partners that include collegiate athletic departments, collegiate athletic conferences and other various collegiate athletic organizations.
The site features a fresh, clean and modern design with simple navigation to easily access information on all 21 Penmen teams. In addition to the all-new design, the updated website also has several new features (Game Day Central), as well as old favorites (Week at a Glance/Student-Athletes of the Week, video), that will assist fans, alumni, students, parents and athletes in following the Penmen.
TOP NAVIGATION – We kept the "Teams" menu largely the same, but focused down our other menu choices and did a little tidying up, allowing you to quickly find what you're looking for. Social media icons also sit up top so you can swiftly visit your favorite social media platform to get more Penmen news.
TOP STORY ROTATOR – We brought back the one-photo-at-a-time top story rotator, but gave you access to 10 top stories at once, with an easy-to-read menu that allows you to quickly digest all of the top headlines and navigate to those you want to read more about.
SCOREBOARD – We know a lot of the time you're visiting us to check a schedule or the score of your favorite team. That's why we dedicated more space to an upcoming schedule and past results section that lets you view by sport or see all of the Penmen teams at once. Check out yesterday's results, tomorrow's schedule and the scores of today's games in progress, with instant access to links to live stats, live video, game stories and more.
QUICK LINKS – We understand what it's like to look for something important and not be able to find it. That's why we put a handful of our most-visited links in a box together that sits just a short scroll down from the top of the page. Handily access areas of the site like the composite schedule, live stats, live video at our NE10 Now platform and sign up to receive the latest news right to your inbox.
SOCIAL MEDIA – We re-worked our social media wall to clean it up a bit and brought it back looking better than ever, allowing you more options to keep up with all your favorite Penmen teams. Now with just a short scroll from the top of the page, you can see all our recent social media posts on
Instagram,
Twitter and
Facebook.
PHOTO GALLERIES – We're lucky to have great photography, so we wanted to show it off and make it easier to find. Photo galleries are now prominently featured on the site so you can view all the great images from your favorite teams. And we've brought all our old galleries with us, so if you want to take a trip down memory lane, there are over 500 galleries dating back to 2011 and we'll keep adding as we can.
