DIAA Social Media Awareness
It has been brought to our attention that there are fake DIAA social media accounts. Unfortunately, our requests with the different platforms to remove those accounts have gone unresolved. Therefore, it is critically important that your community is well educated in this matter.
Official DIAA social media accounts are:
Instagram: Diaa_de
X – Twitter:@DIAA_Delaware
One fraudulent account in particular on Instagram, is @DIAAsports !!!!!. They are claiming to be streaming high school games in Delaware – credit card and other personal information shout NOT be shared on that account.
Be advised that the NFHS Network is the official streaming partner of the DIAA, and that fans should go directly to the NFHS Network to link to any games being covered. The NFHS Delaware page is:
