Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Great Northern Conference
While I do think that the state high school association articles should have a list of who's in what conference, I don't think that most conferences would pass .  From what I've seen, high school conferences aren't considered notable even by the local newspapers.  They're similar to college conferences to the extent that the teams in the group schedule games against each other, but the resemblance stops there.  For one thing, playoffs are based on how the state HSAA groups its regions and districts.  For another, high school teams can't recruit their players, so there is no building of strength or reputation for a particular group of teams-- a player can choose whether to play for a team in the Big Ten or the SEC, while a high school player's choices are limited by residence
