How the Challenge of Champions Competition Works:

  • Each team will set their individual goals in each of the applicable categories in a team meeting (Coaches are invited to observe)
  • At the end of each month points will be tallied by the Life Skills Coordinator
  • At the end of the Fall Semester teams will be reminded of their goals
  • At the end of the Spring Semester the competition will end and the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place winners will be announced, along with a most improved during the following fall semester at the Fall Welcome Back Convention.
