As we prepare to bid adieu to summer, we say hello to another high school sports season.
And we have a special treat for those who have come to depend on us as "Delaware County's Sports Authority." It's called GameTimePa. Take our word for it. You're going to love it.
Meet our new partner, GameTimePa.
We take seriously our reputation as "Delaware County's Sports Authority." And this season, which kicks off Friday night, we're upping the ante.
We'll start it all on Friday with our annual high school pigskin preview section. Make sure you look for it in the print edition of Friday's Daily Times. Then starting with Friday night's full slate of football games, you'll be able to keep tabs not only on all the action here in Delaware County, but across the southeastern Pennsylvania region as well.
And you'll be able to do it online, on your phone, or your tablet.
For the 2013-14 high school sports season, The Daily Times and DelcoTimes.com will join forces with GameTimePA.com, a high school sports-specific website that first put down roots in District 3 through the efforts of the York Daily Record and is now expanding to District 1 and the greater Philadelphia area.
While the Daily Times sports staff will continue to offer our unmatched coverage of high school action here in Delco, through GameTimePa we'll also be able to give readers an in-depth look at all the action in neighboring Montgomery and Chester counties, as well as in Lancaster and York counties.
Here's what you can expect:
Delaware County: Leagues covered include the Central League and the Del Val League plus schools in the Inter-Academic League and Philadelphia Catholic League.
Montgomery/Bucks Counties: Leagues covered include the Pac-10, Suburban One, plus schools in the Philadelphia Catholic League, Bicentennial Athletic League, Inter-Academic, the Athletic Association of Catholic Academies, the Friends School League and the ACCAC.
Chester County: Leagues covered include the Ches-Mont, plus schools in the Pac-10, Central League, Catholic Academy and Bicentennial Athletic League.
Berks County: Leagues covered include the BCIAA, plus schools in the Pac-10, Inter-AC and Bicentennial Athletic League.
GameTimePA will be a one-stop shop for coverage from the schools throughout the entire region. GameTimePA.com will simply be the most comprehensive place for District 1 sports coverage.
GameTimePA will also house our increased amount of video reporting and will be the home of our live high school football scoreboard on game nights, which was a hit last season.
An added benefit on GameTimePA is the availability of standings and box scores, previously unavailable on DelcoTimes.com.
Starting this week, GameTimePA.com will become the place to be for every local sports fan with more local scholastic sports coverage than ever before.
What I don't want is for our loyal local sports fans to panic when they go to the high school sports tab on DelcoTimes.com. Starting later this week, you will be relayed to our new high school home on GameTimePa.com.
While we are ready to fan out and cover all the action in Delco, we also want our readers to engage with us in a truly interactive experience.
You can follow all the GameTimePa action on Twitter and Facebook.
Please like GameTimePA-Southeast on Facebook and follow @GameTimePA_SE on Twitter.
It's almost time for kick off another high school sports season.
We're ready, are you?
If not, we have just what you need.
Welcome to GameTimePa.
