COLLEGE PARK, MD -- The University of Maryland Athletic Department has a new digital look heading into the 2023-24 school year. The Terrapins have partnered with LEARFIELD's SIDEARM Sports to redesign the delivery of digital content. The newest iteration of the Maryland Athletics official website (umterps.com) and One Maryland mobile app will feature SIDEARM's latest NextGen technology.
Maryland Athletics consulted across a wide demographic of fans and peers in collaboration with SIDEARM Sports, the nation's leading collegiate athletics website provider, to provide the most comprehensive and functional platform for news, information, creative content, and ticket information.
"Heading into the highly anticipated 2023-24 seasons, we are excited to introduce our Maryland fans to newly refreshed digital platforms with our official umterps.com and website and One Maryland mobile App," said
Jason Yellin, Associate Athletic Director/Strategic Communications Officer. "We continue to produce high-level content for all 20 Terrapin teams, and the new website and app will showcase those videos, photos and stories for everyone to see. With the move to digital ticketing and digital parking, Maryland fans will now have access to those with just a few clicks on the One Maryland App."
The upgraded umterps.com will provide faster site loads, greater stability, enhanced security, a one-of-a-kind digital design system, and much more. In conjunction with the redesign of umterps.com, the Maryland Athletics mobile app will also be upgraded.
