IHSA Sports
Students in grades 9 through 12 may compete in Illinois High School Association (IHSA) swimming and wrestling seasons.
In swimming, the IHSA features a separate division for individuals from all schools in Illinois who are blind or visually impaired. Â The girls’ season takes place in the fall, while the boys’ season is in the winter.
IHSA wrestling (winter) does not have a separate division like swimming, but does have the rule for constant-contact for all matches involving blind or visually impaired wrestlers.
