The Circle City Conference or CCC is a high school athletic conference in the central district of the Indiana High School Athletic Association (IHSAA) consisting of 5 private schools; four Catholic schools and one nondenominational Christian schools in Greater Indianapolis. It began competition at the beginning of the 2016–2017 school year following a crackdown by the IHSAA on the multiple private schools that were playing numerous schedules with teams outside of Indiana.[1] The first sporting event in the conference was a boy's varsity tennis match between Brebeuf Jesuit and Guerin Catholic that took place on August 18, 2016. The Golden Eagles defeated the Braves 4–1. As of August 2015, Greg VanSlambrook is the president of the conference.[2] Combined, the schools have accounted for 85 IHSAA state championships.
