The Southern Ohio Athletic/Academic Conference is celebrating over 100 years of its existence. Formerly the Clermont County League, established in 1919, the league changed its name to the Southern Buckeye Athletic/Academic Conference in 1987. This change allowed schools outside of Clermont County to be invited into the league. For a complete History of our league, click on the "History" link above.

The Southern Buckeye Athletic/Academic Conference (SBAAC) is currently comprised of the following schools:  Batavia, Bethel-Tate, Blanchester, Clermont Northeastern, Clinton-Massie, East Clinton, Felicity, Georgetown, Goshen, New Richmond, Western Brown, Williamsburg, and Wilmington. Fayetteville is a member of the SBAAC in the sport of football only. 

The SBAAC website features several articles about our member schools’ teams and athletes, which can be read below. These articles come from school web sites, local newspapers, and other media sources.  Keep up to date on your local teams and athletes by periodically checking this section.  

Also, you can follow us on Twitter @SBCscores1 for sports news.

Good luck to all our athletes, coaches, athletic directors, administrators, and parents, who together make the SBAAC one of the best leagues in the state!

The SBAAC is deeply saddened by the passing of George "Bud" Phillips, former Commissioner of the SBAAC. Mr. Phillips passed away on Wednesday, April 5, 2023 with his family by his side.

Mr. Phillips was the Commissioner of the SBAAC (formerly the CCL) from the early 1980's to 2010. In his role as Commissioner, he helped in shaping the expansion of the league to include new schools who were eager to be added to conference play. He also played a role in encouraging new sports to be added to the list of league-sanctioned sports.

Upon retirement from the SBAAC, a Scholarship program was created to honor him, and each year, the SBAAC awards at least four scholarships to promising seniors who are continuing their academic and athletic endeavors at the next level. 

Our thoughts and prayers are with his family and friends at this time.
