Conference Indiana

Conference Indiana within Indiana

Conference Indiana (CI) is an athletic conference within the Indiana High School Athletic Association. CI is one four Indiana high school athletic conferences comprised exclusively of Footall Class 5A (largest class) enrollment schools. Conference Indiana was initially formed from the union of surviving members of the Central Suburban Athletic Conference (CSAC) and the South Central Conference (SCC) after the departure of members to the Metropolitian Interscholastic Conference (MIC).

Original membership included all six non-MIC township schools in Indianapolis (Decatur Central, Pike, Lawrence Central, Franklin Central, Southport, and Perry Meridian high schools). Also included were the four largest non-MIC high schools in south central Indiana at the time of conference formation: Columbus North, Bloomington South, Bloomington North, and Martinsville high schools.

Decatur Central and Martinsville left the conference to join the Mid-State Conference, citing travel issues.
