Congratulations to the 3rd annual Student Section Spirit Challenge top schools of Allatoona (1st, 6A-7A), Dade County (1st, 1A-5A), Richmond Hill (2nd, 6A-7A) and Trion (2nd, 1A-5A).
The 2023 event was organized again by the GHSA Student Athlete Advisory Council (SAAC) In an effort to reward good sportsmanship, while having fun and showing great school spirit.
A total of 26 schools submitted videos demonstrating their support by exemplifying rituals for games, participating in pep rallies and showing up and being heard at many other school events.
To determine the winner, judges scored the videos against the rubric that was posted earlier in the season. After determining the top five videos with those scores, the SAAC met on a zoom call to watch and discuss the videos together. The council expressed kudos to the schools that included the entire student body through pep rallies, games of multiple sports, and included many groups like band, dance teams, etc.
The winners will receive a large banner for their student section and trophy to take back to their school during an upcoming event at the winning school.
Much appreciation to everyone who participated! Videos can be watched on @OfficialGHSA You Tube
