New Alignment for Upcoming Season

Beginning in the 2008 season, the league will split into divisions which are aligned with the PIAA classifications. Instead of two divisions, the Catholic League will now have three. There will be a AAAA division (largest schools), a AAA division (mid-sized schools) and a AA division (small schools). Although the PIAA has a "A" classification, no current school in the league is small enough to fit into that category.

AAAA Division	AAA Division	AA Division
Archbishop Ryan	Archbishop Wood	Archbishop Carroll
Cardinal O'Hara	Conwell-Egan	Bishop McDevitt
Father Judge	Lansdale Catholic	Cardinal Dougherty
LaSalle	Neumann-Goretti	Kennedy-Kenrick
Monsignor Bonner	North Catholic	West Catholic
Roman Catholic
St Joseph Prep

Regular Season - The regular season for each team will consist of one game against each of their division opponents, with the AAAA division playing 6 regular season games and the AAA and AA divisions playing 4. The AAA and AA divisions will play one crossover game against the other division to compensate for the odd number of teams in each division. The AAAA will either play a non-league game during the regular season or they will have a bye week during the year.

League Playoffs - The top four teams from each division will make the playoffs. The league playoffs will consist of a two week format, with the 1st place team playing the 4th place team and the 2nd place team playing the 3rd place team in the first week. The winners of these semi-final contests will meet the following week for the PCL championship game. Note: There will now be three separate Catholic League Champions.

District Championship - Each of the three championship winners will play the champion from the Public League in their classification. This game will determine the District Champion (same as the old City Title Game).
