Athletic Co-ops

The NDHSAA Board of Directors must approve all cooperative sponsorship applications.

One of the NDHSAA Board purposes is to provide a means of participation to students whose schools are unable to support a program on its own.

It is the preference of the Board to approve coops between smaller schools rather than smaller schools with the larger schools.

Improving the win/loss record will not be valid criteria for coop approval.
