In 2016 the members of the Seamount League were part of a major restructuring, which brought into existence the new North Puget Sound League and changes to the South Puget Sound League, and caused the Seamount League to fold.
Leadership
The league was led by three organizations: the Superintendents' Association, the Principals' Association, and the Activities / Athletics Directors' Association.
The Superintendents' Association determined the overall direction of the league.
