How do clubs enter?

An official club representative must register the club on the contest microsite and submit a short essay explaining how the $10,000 prize would support the club’s goals.

How do supporters get involved?

Community members can:

  • Visit the contest microsite
  • Enter their ZIP/postal code
  • Search for and select a club to support
  • If a club isn’t listed, it can be registered by an Official Club Representative directly on the site
  • Share the contest link to generate more support

How does voting work?

Once a club is registered and approved, its profile will go live on the site and be open for community voting. Each vote counts as one entry into the sweepstakes. Community voting makes up 5% of the overall winner selection. See “How are contest winners selected” below for more details.

How are contest winners selected?

After the entry period closes, judges will evaluate entries based on:
