The Wisconsin Flyway Conference was formed in 2006, the result of a split of six schools from the East Central Flyway Conference (Horicon, Laconia, Lomira, Mayville, North Fond du Lac and St. Mary's Springs).[1] These schools were previously in the conference's Rivers Division and were members of the original Flyway Conference before its merger with the East Central Conference. Kettle Moraine Lutheran in Jackson was the seventh original member of the Wisconsin Flyway Conference, having been displaced by the closing of the Parkland Conference the year prior.[2]Winnebago Lutheran Academy in Fond du Lac joined as the conference's eighth member after the East Central Flyway was closed in 2007.[3]Omro's entry into the Wisconsin Flyway Conference from the Eastern Valley Conference in 2010 brought membership to its high of nine schools.[4] This mark was to be short-lived, as Horicon left to join the Trailways Conference in 2012.[5] The membership roster was further decreased to seven schools in 2015 when Kettle Moraine Lutheran became members of the reconstituted East Central Conference.[6] In 2021, Campbellsport exited the East Central Conference to become the Wisconsin Flyway Conference's eighth member.[7] This figure will increase back to nine in 2025, as St. Lawrence Seminary will be joining as a full member after having previously been an associate member in multiple sports.
