The Eastern Shores Hockey Conference is a high school athletic conference sponsoring girls hockey. Founded in 2010, its membership is concentrated in eastern Wisconsin and is affiliated with the Wisconsin Interscholastic Athletic Association.
History The Eastern Shores Hockey Conference was started in 2010 by seven girls high school hockey programs in the eastern half of Wisconsin: Appleton United, Arrowhead, Bay Area Ice Bears, Beaver Dam, Brookfield Glacier, Fond du Lac Warbirds and University School. An eighth school was added the next year when the Fox Cities Stars co-operative joined the loop. The conference has operated with eight members for most of its history with only two further membership changes. Beaver Dam left the conference in 2017 when they moved all varsity sports to the Badger Conference and were replaced by the Lakeshore Lightning co-operative in Mequon. The next year, Appleton United joined the Fox Cities Stars co-operative and the Wisconsin Valley Union co-operative (based in Stevens Point) took their place. They remained members of the Eastern Shores until 2025, when they joined the Wisconsin Valley Conference.
