History
The Foothill League is one of the earliest CIF-SS leagues in existence. Membership has historically included schools throughout Los Angeles County, including in the Santa Clarita Valley, Burbank, Glendale, and the San Gabriel Valley. In the 1930s, the league's footprint extended as far south as Fullerton.
In 2006, Burbank and Burroughs high schools in Burbank left the Foothill League to join the Pacific League to reduce travel expenses and become more competitive. Since then, the Foothill League has been composed exclusively of Hart District schools.
