The SAL was founded in 2034, as a spillover league for the CSL, which, at the time of the SAL's founding, contained 33 clubs. In order to fill out the SAL, it was decided that the most senior 22 clubs would compete in the CSL while the junior 11 clubs would form their own league, whose name was to be decided.

The San Andreas League (SAL) is a Californian soccer league and the second-highest level of the New California soccer league system, after the California Soccer League (CSL).
The SAL was founded in 2034, as a spillover league for the CSL, which, at the time of the SAL's founding, contained 33 clubs. In order to fill out the SAL, it was decided that the most senior 22 clubs would compete in the CSL while the junior 11 clubs would form their own league, whose name was to be decided. The decision of what to name the league was put to vote amongst the clubs' head coaches, with "San Andreas League" being unanimously supported. 11 more clubs joined the league in the spring of 2034, forcing the SAL to expand to 22 clubs. In October of 2034, it was decided that every 22 clubs that joined would create a new league. As such, the Gold Rush League (GRL) was founded.
The SAL, like the CSL, operates on a round-robin 84-game season beginning around early April and ending in September (excluding the playoffs). This means the season is split into quarters, after which a 10-day break takes place. The top six clubs advance to the playoffs after the regular season has ended, the 10-day break expanding to 15 days. The two-round tournament determines who will advance to the CSL, the top four teams being promoted; the San Andreas Cup is awarded to the winner of the tournament. The San Jose Earthquakes, Hayward United, and Anaheim Dynamite FC share the record for most cups with 2, and San Rafael USC are the most recent champions, having defeated Tulare United 2-1 to win the championship and advance to the CSL for the first time in their existence.
The SAL is the second-largest non-top-flight sports division on the North American continent, only behind Class AAA baseball in the Reformed States. Clubs are relegated to the Gold Rush League, which was formed in 2034. The league is overseen by the New California Soccer Association (NCSA), which oversees all tiers of Californian soccer, including the California Winter Soccer League (CWSL).
