Central Iowa Metro League

The Central Iowa Metropolitan League
The Central Iowa Metropolitan League consists of 18 members schools from throughout Central Iowa. The League was established to enable each member school to operate more effectively and more efficiently in its complete athletic program. This is accomplished by permitting each member school to develop more complete schedules, to limit travel, and to compete with other high schools of similar enrollment.

The athletic and activity directors of the league manage the CIML, with final authority resting with the principals of the member schools.

Schedules are generated for each sport with the majority of competition involving interconference play. Rotations are established in some sports to allow for interleague competition. Conference Champions are determined in all sports.
