2027 NKSL Schedule
On Thursday, September 3, 2026, the NKSL Board of Delegates approved the schedule parameters for the 2027 season. By determining these dates now, it is our hope that families can use this information to schedule vacations and other activities for their children to avoid as many conflicts as possible. We will hold six dual meets over a seven-week span with one universal bye week where no meets will be scheduled. This universal bye week will occur during the KHSAA Dead Period which should allow families that have athletes in the NKSL and high school sports to have a free week to schedule vacations.
We will hold meets on the following dates with the first date representing a diving meet and the second a swimming meet.
Week 1 – June 8th and 10th
Week 2 – June 15th and 17th
Week 3 – June 22nd and 24th
Week 4 – June 29th and July 1
Week 5 – Universal Bye Week – No meets scheduled
Week 6 – July 13th and 15th
Week 7 – July 20th and 22nd
While the NKSL Diving Classic could fall during Week 7, most of the postseason will be during the week of July 26th through July 30th. The exact dates of the various meets will be finalized in the next few months. We believe this will avoid conflicts with the Championships Meets of the Southwest Ohio Y Swim League, Kentucky Swimming, and Ohio Swimming. We feel it will also avoid conflicts with some of the lower level meets offered by USA Swimming. If you have questions about this schedule, please reach out to your team delegate.
