2017-18: Financial Review

The IHSAA 2017-18

Financial Review

The IHSAA not only makes an effort to operate as efficiently as

possible, it also provides its member-schools with an extensive

list of products and services, amenities that many high schools

in Indiana would be hard-pressed to provide for themselves.

Included are catastrophic medical insurance for all 410 of

its schools, rule books and other publications and an array of

web-based software products.

At the same time, it returns a significant amount of money every

year to its membership in the form of reimbursements and

stipends. In fact, the IHSAA returned over $2.67 million to its 410

member-schools during the 2017-18 school year. And unlike many

state associations, it does not charge any of its schools an annual

membership fee or any tournament entry fees.

The IHSAA has only four sources of income: ticket sales to tour-

nament events, official licensing fees, radio, television and internet

rights fees and corporate partnerships. A special thank you is

extended to our corporate partners. The value of their commitment

to high school sports in Indiana cannot be overstated.
