The North Eastern Conference, is a high school athletic conference made up of ten teams in northeastern Wisconsin, centering primarily around the Green Bay / Fox Valley Metropolitan/ and Marinette Areas. Conference schools are members of the Wisconsin Interscholastic Athletic Association.

Conference History

2007

Four teams from the East Central Conference and six from the Valley 8 Conference formed the Eastern Valley Conference.

2009

Omro asked the WIAA to move out of the Eastern Valley Conference to the Flyway because of not being able to compete with the larger schools. The school moved out at the end of the 2009-2010 school year.

2013

In 2013 the WIAA unveiled plans for a new structure of the EVC. The plan calls for the Departure of Berlin, Ripon & Winneconne to the revived East Central Conference, and Xavier to the Bay. Denmark, Luxemburg-Casco, Marinette & Oconto Falls would leave the Bay to the EVC along with Olympian Member Wrightstown. Waupaca would move to the Bay for Football only. Xavier has voiced it will likely appeal the plan due to passing schools they currently play while traveling to the schools in this realigned conference.

2015

The plans created in 2013 became effective, and the new conference has been renamed from the Eastern Valley Conference to the North Eastern Conference because the location is no longer only in the Fox Valley area. It now includes schools from the Green Bay, Fox Valley, and Marinette metropolitan areas.
