Each school is awarded points for its finishes based on the number of teams in that sport. Most sports are split by divisions, rewarding a first-place finish with six points, a second-place finish with five points, etc. A first-place finish in sports with a full conference nets 12 points.
This is the eighth year the BCR Three Rivers Conference All-Sports Championship has been rewarded, with two years (2019-20/2020-21) lost to COVID-19.
Rockridge won the first championship in 2015-16 followed by a two-year run by Newman (2016-17, 2017-18), Orion in 2018-19, Sherrard in 2021-22 and 2022-23 and Riverdale in 2023-24.
