Philadelphia Catholic League

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Philadelphia Catholic League is a high school sports league composed of 20 Catholic High Schools in Philadelphia and the surrounding Pennsylvania suburbs. The schools are split into two geographical divisions (North and South) in all sports except football in which the schools are divided by size (Red/Large, Blue/Small). In football, the blue and red divisions hand out separate league championships each year, while all other sports have a unified champion.
