COUNTRY is in its 50th year of sponsoring the Illinois High School Association (IHSA) and is providing a new opportunity for local high schools to win $5,000 to benefit the school’s athletic department and student-athletes, called the “Sport Your School Giveaway.” Individuals can enter their school to win through December 12, 2025. COUNTRY will offer this opportunity again from January – May, 2026.
COUNTRY is the presenting sponsor for 40 IHSA state championships for various high school sports throughout the 2025-2026 school year, and will co-sponsor the 2025 IHSA boys’ state football championships with the Illinois Farm Bureau. “COUNTRY has a highly valued, longstanding relationship with the IHSA,” said Nikki Johnson, Vice President of Marketing at COUNTRY. “Schools are the lifeblood of our communities, and we are proud to be part of bringing championship opportunities to students and communities throughout the state.”
