The Ohio Capital Conference is a high school athletic conference located in Central Ohio. It comprises 32 public high schools located primarily in suburban Columbus, Ohio, encompassing Delaware, Fairfield, Franklin, Licking, Knox, and Union counties. The league is geographically divided between three divisions of eight teams each (Ohio, Central, and Cardinal). The remaining eight schools make up "small school" division, known as the Capital. Twenty-six schools compete in the OHSAA's Division I classification for football while six schools compete in Division II. All conference members compete in the Central District postseason tournaments prior to the regional and state tournaments.
Academically, 27 of the 32 members were rated 'Excellent' by the Ohio Department of Education during the 2010-2011 school year. Two were rated 'Effective' and three were classified under 'Continuous Improvement'.
