The Sunshine State Athletic Conference, the 32-team independent-based conference with teams from Jacksonville to South Florida is encouraging their teams to participate in the #OneLoveSportsChallenge this season.
So what is the #OneLoveSportsChallenge? Here is what it is about according to the section dedicated to the challenge on the SSAC’s website.
Sure enough, the first teams to take part of the challenge last night were All Saints Academy out of Winter Haven and International Community School out of Winter Park.

However, in the end, we feel that all teams, not just those in the Sunshine State Athletic Conference should do this season and we hope to see the FHSAA join in on the backing of this challenge as well that will certainly promote great sportsmanship throughout the state!
