  • Northwest Jersey Athletic Conference
    NORTHWEST JERSEY ATHLETIC CONFERENCE SCHOOL DIRECTORY 2013-14 http://www.nwjerseyac.com Sportsmanship is our Priority 1 ABOUT THE NORTHWEST JERSEY ATHLETIC CONFERENCE The Northwest Jersey Athletic Conference was formed during the 2008-09 school year, as a result of the realignment of the conferences in Northern and Central New Jersey by the New Jersey State Interscholastic Association (NJSIAA). The NJAC consists of schools in all of Morris and Sussex Counties. All the schools in Sussex County were part of the Sussex County Interscholastic League (SCIL). The schools in Morris County were part of three conferences, depending on enrollments: • Colonial Hills Conference (CHC) • Iron Hills Conference (IHC) • Northern Hills Conference (NHC) The schools were realigned under a plan by the NJSIAA to save costs on transportation and to restore the rivalries between various schools in the area. It gives a chance for neighboring schools to play each other. The NJSIAA had spent a year researching the details and learned that many conferences had schools in three or four counties. For example, the Northern Hills Conference had schools in Morris, Essex, and Passaic Counties. In December 2008, Hackettstown, not wanting to travel long distances and make sure that student athletes do not lose time in class, decided to leave the Skyland Conference, which consists of schools in Hunterdon, Warren, and Somerset Counties, and join the NJAC, so that they could play schools that are closer to the Warren County high school. During the 2010-11 school year, North Warren Regional also cited that they did not want to travel long distances and decided to leave the Skyland Conference to join the NJAC during the 2012-13 school year.
