Want to spend a day at a WIAA State Championship Event?

This could be your chance!

The Washington Interscholastic Activities Association is proud to introduce the Future Champions Program.  This program is designed to give nonprofit youth organizations throughout the state of Washington the chance to experience a fun-filled day at a WIAA State Championship Event.

Studies prove that students participating in interscholastic activities have better grades and higher attendance rates than students not involved in activities, and a national study indicates that interscholastic participants have a low drop-out rate.  Ninety-six percent of dropouts did not participate in any kind of interscholastic activity.  The Future Champions Program was initiated to emphasize interscholastic activities as an integral part of the total education process.

The selected organization will be guests of the WIAA for the entire day.  Event passes and parking may be coupled with other items chosen by the WIAA, the host site and the event partner.  Some possibilities include T-shirts, opportunities to participate in halftime presentation, meals, championship memorabilia, event partner memorabilia, etc.   This day is an EXPERIENCE.  Selected organizations should not expect to just pick up passes at the gate, but to have an exciting day with a WIAA staff representative as their host.

This program is only being offered for the following
