# Blossom Valley Athletic League

Blossom Valley Athletic League (BVAL) is a high school athletic conference in Santa Clara County, California. It is the county's largest high school sports league and is part of the CIF Central Coast Section of the California Interscholastic Federation.

## Structure and history

Blossom Valley Athletic League comprises 26 high schools in Santa Clara County. The schools are separated into three divisions based on the strength of each specific sports program. The three divisions are Mt. Hamilton, Santa Teresa, and West Valley.

It was the first high school sports league in Santa Clara County to cancel its Spring 2020 sports seasons in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. After California's stay-at-home order was lifted in January 2021, the BVAL laid out plans for the return of high school sports.
