Frontier Football League : 1983-Present HOME Return to Area FB November 12, 2011
The Frontier League's first year of football joined together Baldwin, Wellsville, Spring Hill and Louisburg of the defunct Jayhawk II League with Paola, Garnett, Gardner and Osawatomie of the old Pioneer League. The group was joined by LaCygne-Prairie View who dropped out of the Three Rivers League. Eudora was added as a member in 1996. *
In 2002 the league was divided into an Upper & Lower divisions. Gardner-Edgerton, Louisburg, Baldwin, Paola and Spring Hill made up the Upper, while Eudora, LaCtgne-Prairie View, Osawatomie, Wellsville & Garnett-Anderson County. The collapse of the Huron League in 2004 allowed Ottawa to join the league and compete in the Upper Division. Expansion of the Lower Division occurred that same year with the addition of DeSoto and Richmond-Central Heights. DeSoto moved to the Upper Division in 2006.
A major change in 2008 ended the divisional play in the Frontier. All the lower division teams except Eudora left to form a new version of the Pioneer League.
The last changes in membership involved Gardner-Edgerton (joined the larger school EKL in 2010) and Lenexa-St. James Academy ( joined the league in 2011).
