Season Format
The League has regular season play, beginning in late November, and conducts two boys and two girls Conference Championship Tournaments in late February and early March - an AA tournament and an A tournament. All teams participate in the year-end events and are seeded based on regular season records.
The boys girls conferences are split into four divisions - Chesapeake, Piedmont, Antietam and Mountain - based largely on their high school league affiliations. Teams play home-away against each divisional opponent and round out their regular season schedule against selected teams outside their division.
The boys postseason tournaments are awarded on a rotating basis. The girls tournament hosts selected from volunteering organizations..
