CIF-Southern Section competitive equity proposal passes … playoff divisions will be based on teams NOT leagues …

The CIF-Southern Section member schools passed a historic action on Wednesday that will drastically reshape the way playoff divisions are formed for all sports.

Under the new format, playoff divisions will be based solely on competitive equity, thus meaning that league affiliations matter not. The new system will be in place for the 2016-17 school year with teams finding out their divisions on an annual basis every August.
