As always parent participation is essential to operate our State teams so please volunteer to help however you can.

All state games and carnival contribute to the player's game count and milestone badges.

All players get a Cougars States cap, a States patch, photo and medal at the windup.

Depending on availability of sponsors, players will receive a shirt with their name on the back or a loan shirt from the club.
