New Mexico Military left the league in 1996, but rejoined in 2001. Pima Community College also joined the WSFL in 2001. In 2002, Ricks College cancelled all sports and left the WSFL, after changing its name to Brigham Young University–Idaho. Finally, in 2006, Dixie State left the league when the school moved to the NCAA Division II level.
New Mexico Military left the WSFL for the Southwest Junior College Football Conference following the 2015 season.
