About AIAAA

The Arizona Interscholastic Athletic Administrators Association was begun in 1982 by a group of high school athletic directors who realized that education and programs were needed to foster higher standards of professionalism with the ranks of Arizona’s high school athletic directors. The AIAAA hosts a yearly conference, sponsors and teaches classes, provides opportunities for professional certification and is an affiliate of the National Interscholastic Athletic Administrators Association. The AIAAA works closely with the Arizona Interscholastic Association, the governing board for all Arizona high school athletics.
