BEST IN STATE | NOMINATIONS OPEN

For the Athlete Who Produces, Leads, & Lifts Everyone Around Them

The All State Game Best In State Recognition program is for the athlete who fills the stat sheet, sets the standard, and raises the level of everyone around them.

This no-cost recognition honors standout 6th–8th graders for their performance, character, and leadership—and gives you a simple way to say, “You belong among the Best In State.

EXTRA EFFORT DESERVES MORE

Parents, coaches, teammates, and family members all see it: Some athletes don’t just put up numbers—they raise the level of everyone around them. Yet too often their season ends with nothing more than a line in the box score and a quiet “good job.” That doesn’t feel right.

The All State Game Best In State Recognition program exists to change that. It’s a recognition program to shine a spotlight on an athlete whose performance, character, and leadership deserve to be seen and celebrated by the whole community.

“To the coaches and athletes out there, participate in it, do it, it’s a great program that builds your recognition.”

Coach David Brown, Larchmont Varsity
