Ventura County Area High School Football Leagues

Saturday, August 30, 2025

One question that I kept fielding from our former Westlake players last night at the Westlake H.S at Agoura game was, "Coach, what leagues are these two teams in nowadays?"

My answer was succinct, "I have no clue anymore."

The reason for my answer was simple enough. Every two years the 30 high schools in the greater Ventura County area playing 11-man football go through a process of league realignment based on the performance and Power Rankings of the teams over the previous two seasons. Student body enrollment figures and geography are no longer factors in the placing of the teams into leagues as it was back when our Warriors alums asking the question were on the gridiron back in the early 1980s.

So this morning I did some research into the matter.

We'll start with the league deemed to be the toughest in the area and the only one with a logo on Google Images.
