Football schedules for the 2025 and 2026 regular seasons are now available for all participating schools.
Regular season football schedules are determined by the IHSAA. Regular season schedules for all other IHSAA sports are determined by member schools and their conferences.
Districts and groups (Class 5A) are assigned by the IHSAA. Participating schools then submit preferred non-district opponents to the IHSAA through a priority list. The IHSAA attempts to align schedules with as many priority list selections as possible, however, opponents and availability cannot be guaranteed.
District and group assignments were posted in March following Board of Control approval. The 2025-26 football cycle will be the second with a socioeconomic factor added for classifications. Approved in 2022-23, the classification adjustment reduces 40 percent of a school’s free or reduced lunch (FRL) count from their annual enrollment to determine their final classification number.
Schools in 2A, 1A, A, and 8P that do not qualify for the postseason may schedule a ninth game if they desire.
