The Nicolet Conference is a former high school athletic conference consisting of small schools in the Menominee Valley of northeastern Wisconsin. It was operational from 1938 to 1942, and its members belonged to the Wisconsin Interscholastic Athletic Association.
History
The Nicolet Conference was founded in 1938 by four small schools in Marinette County and Oconto County in northeastern Wisconsin: Amberg, Mountain, Pembine and Wausaukee. The conference was named after Jean Nicolet, the French fur trader who explored Wisconsin's waterways in pre-colonial North America. Competition lasted for only four seasons before World War II interrupted and the conference was disbanded in 1942. Three years later, three former members of the Nicolet Conference (Amberg, Pembine and Wausaukee) would join with Crivitz of the Marinette & Oconto Conference to form the Granite Valley Conference.
