About COLORADO HIGH SCHOOL ACTIVITIES ASSOCIATION

The Colorado High School Activities Association (CHSAA) is the statewide governing body for interscholastic athletics and activities for Colorado high schools, operating as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit based in Aurora, CO. The Association provides rules, classification, championship events, and administrative support to member schools and their students across a broad slate of sports and activities. CHSAA is a long-established organization (founded in the early 20th century) that serves several hundred member schools and is led by a commissioner and an executive staff who manage programs, classification cycles, participation data, and statewide conferences and initiatives focused on leadership, equity, and student engagement. Recent organizational activity has emphasized participation tracking, leadership development programs (including an annual Women in Leadership conference), and statewide classification and policy work for the 2026–28 cycle.
