The 2024-2025 OIA Par Hawaii Cup point totals were used in determining the separation of schools into their categorical divisions for the 2025-2026 season.

A maximum of twelve (12) schools are required for Division One (1), allowing only the top six (6) schools from the East and the top six (6) schools from the West.

The remaining thirteen (13) schools will form the Division Two (2) category.

Divisional Movements: Movement from divisions will occur at the end of each season (at the final reading for Winter Sports – Paddling). With this said, there must be an equal number of 6 East and 6 West Schools in the D1 listing, totaling 12 schools per year. Hence, the bottom East team and the bottom West team from Division 1 will switch with the top East team and the top West team from Division 2 annually.
