These All-County teams were compiled during February 2008 by the CaliforniaPreps staff with the assistance of coaches, media, and other knowlegeable gurus from around the county. Most of the players named to the First Team were consensus choices, as they appeared on most of the ballots received.

We have used the selection format utilized by the Ventura County Coaches Association. An MVP was chosen and two 12-player teams were selected. Additionally, we have selected a generous list of honorable mention players. We realize that there are players who have given magnificent efforts in behalf of small school teams, players on teams that did not get much notoriety, or who spent much of the season injured and unable to play and we gave consideration to their efforts.

Players on teams located in Santa Barbara County are not included in this list (they will be honored by the Coaches Association in their own county and CaliforniaPreps will cover that announcement). However, players on Agoura, Calabasas, and Malibu have been included because their leagues are comprised primarily of Ventura County teams. Approximate 30 teams were considered in selecting the All-County player lists.
