 | This page in a nutshell: Sports leagues between high schools/secondary schools are generally considered to be notable, but they must be able to meet the relevant guidelines for notability |
Articles on high schools and secondary schools, with rare exceptions, have been kept when nominated at Articles for Deletion except where they fail verifiability. This essay is being written to achieve similar status for the sports leagues these institutions are involved in.
A large majority of high schools, particularly those with any significant population, are involved in interscholastic athletics, meaning sports between other schools. While this concept is not limited to the United States or even North America, much of the reference here is toward the United States. Other editors, feel free to add localized information to this page.
