IHSAA legal counsel Brian Humke will develop an updated version of the IHSAA Articles of Incorporation that will be submitted to the Iowa State Board of Education for consideration. This is due by December 27th in order to be placed on the January 12th State Board of Education agenda.
Should the Iowa State Board of Education approve the amendment, the new model for classification in football will be implemented for the 2023 and 2024 football scheduling cycle.
Pending that approval, the IHSAA Board of Control will review, discuss, and consider IHSAA administrative staff recommendations concerning the Eight-Player enrollment cap, currently at 120 or permitted by exception.
