Sportsmanship is not just a student issue.
Coaches model it. Parents influence it. Officials deal with it. Administrators set expectations for it.
If we want better behavior, adults have to lead it consistently.

A RECORD-HIGH 8,415,684 students played high school sports in 2025-26!
But there’s been only a modest rise in the number of new officials nationwide.
👀 SEE THE GAP? 👀

Negativity. Immaturity. Aggressive behavior.
When high school athletic events are canceled because of bad fan behavior, everyone loses.
ESPECIALLY our students.
Let’s #BenchBadBehavior and preserve civility in our schools!

🏆 So much of high school sports and activities starts behind the scenes.
From organizing championships to supporting schools, providing resources and creating opportunities for students, high school athletic and activities associations help make the experience possible for millions of students across the country.
They’re working every day to make sure students have the opportunity to play, perform, compete and belong.
This #MadePossibleWeek, we’re celebrating the state associations that help make high school sports and activities possible — and the people behind them who keep students at the center of it all. 👏
Thank you for all you do! ❤️

The name on your shirt represents your school. Your community. You and your family.
How we carry ourselves at athletic events speaks volumes about who we are.
WHO DO WE WANT TO BE?
Always respect the game and #BenchBadBehavior. buff.ly/p12WNPI

In school sports, coaches are educators first.
They care about WHO YOU BECOME as a person.
Not just how you perform as an athlete.
Talk to your local school about participating in their athletics program today!

What happens when students feel connected to their high school?
🫶 THEY HAVE BETTER MENTAL HEALTH.
What’s one of the best ways to build that connection?
👊 PLAYING HIGH SCHOOL SPORTS.

Coaches play a powerful role in the high school experience - helping students learn, grow, compete and become the best versions of themselves.
Today, we’re grateful for the coaches who show up every day and make a difference far beyond the scoreboard.
Happy #NationalCoachesDay! 👏🏆
Who's a coach you want to celebrate today?!

Guess what happens when you treat high school officials poorly?
-They quit. (Wouldn’t you?)
-There aren’t enough officials. (Oh.)
-High school sports can’t play on. (NO!)
Don’t be part of the PROBLEM. Be part of the SOLUTION
