The Idaho High School Activities Association (IHSAA) oversees high school athletics in the state of Idaho. Idaho high schools are classified in five categories based on their enrollment. Generally speaking but not necessarily, schools compete against other schools in their own classification, but are allowed to play other schools one classification above or below them in most sports. Playoffs and championships are based on these classifications as well.[1]
