Stadium Road Showdown
Since the official split of the two schools, Madera High and Madera South have been a rival of each other. In 2008, the first annual Stadium Road Showdown game was held. The game derived its name from the street that both schools are on. Anticipation filled the town as the battle of Madera began. Madera High's Varsity Football team beat Madera South 35-0, and was awarded a giant "saw" which references to Madera's roots of being a lumber town. The winning school keeps the award in their front office. In 2009, Madera High narrowly beat Madera South once again, 14-13.
