IHSAA- The Iowa High School Athletic Association (IHSAA) had their board meeting today and announced that boys’ golf for Classes 1A, 2A, and 3A will remain in the spring for the 2025-2026 season.
The decision to move the golf season to the fall in 2025 was announced in August, but the Board of Control voted 5-3 to delay the boys’ golf change indefinitely.
“We considered the feedback from our member schools and the board ultimately decided it was worth reconsidering our initial vote,” said board chairperson Dr. Andy Crozier, superintendent at Central Lee. “It became clear that there were too many obstacles that need to be resolved in the short-term to make this change for the 2025-26 school year.”
Boys’ golf for Class 4A will remain in the fall.
Other changes will be coming to the 2025 spring season for boys’ soccer with four recommendations being approved.
Standardizing match schedules will permit schools a maximum of 17 matches per level of competition, two matches per day, and individual players will be permitted up to four halves of play per day.
Another recommendation would require varsity contests to consist of two 40-minute halves. Lastly, the 2025 State Tournament schedule would see the quarterfinals start on June 2nd with the championship finals wrapping up on June 6th.
