League sports

The Bergen-Passaic Scholastic League allowed member schools to compete in many sports spread out among three seasons. Although the league did not have a cheerleading division, many member schools had their own cheerleading teams. Other sports, such as fencing, are offered by some schools, but like cheerleading, were not part of the BPSL.

The following is a list of the sports that BPSL offered. Some sports did not have a team from every school.
