Livermore Falls High School was a part of the Mountain Valley Conference. The Mountain Valley Conference includes Boothbay H.S., Carrabec H.S., Dirigo H.S., Hall-Dale H.S., Jay H.S., Lisbon H.S., Madison H.S., Monmouth Academy, Mt.

Livermore Falls had a well-storied rivalry with Jay High School in the neighboring town of Jay, which was most evident on the football field. Having begun in 1939, it was considered by some to be one of the most intense rivalries in the state. [3] After the 2010 game, which was the 77th in the rivalry, the record for wins was Jay 40, Livermore Falls 36. On January 25, 2011 voters in Livermore Falls, Livermore, and Jay voted to consolidate school districts, effectively ending the rivalry. The combined team, known as the "Phoenix" plays their home games on the former Livermore Falls High School football field in Livermore Falls, and has had only moderate success since the merger.

The mascot for the new teams is the Phoenix. Consolidation took effect for the 2011-2012 school year. In the fall of 2013, all RSU 73 students began attending school at Spruce Mountain High School in the former Jay High School building.

If a conference had members that span multiple regions, the conference is placed in the article of the region most of its former members hail from. Because the names of localities and their corresponding high schools do not always match and because there is often a possibility of ambiguity with respect to either the name of a locality or the name of a high school, the following table gives both in every case, with the locality name first, in plain type, and the high school name second in boldface type. The school's team nickname is given last.
