Participating Athletic Associations
(TDCAA, TDSSAA, LOSSA, YRAA, CISAA)

The current format features the league champions from Durham (LOSSA), Independent Schools (CISAA), Toronto (combination of TDCAA and TDSSAA schools) and York (YRAA).
This format has been in place since 2003 with one exception.  In 2006, with the Central Bowl being discontinued, the Simcoe County league champion (GBSSAA) competed.  They met the Independent League Champions in a Quarter-final game.  In 2007, GBSSAA moved to the National Capital Bowl playoffs.
The formula being used to determine, which league plays which league is as follows: The two leagues who won the semi-final games in the previous season meet in one semi-final game while the two who lost meet in the other semi-final.
This ensures that there is at least one new league in the final each season.
