2021 WHSAA STATE SPIRIT COMPETITION
The 2021 State Spirit Competition will be held Thursday, Januray 28th for 2A/3A teams, and Friday, January 29th for 4A teams.
The WHSAA has received a variance from the Wyoming Department of Health to allow for two (2) spectators per participant at the 2021 State Spirit Competition at the Ford Wyoming Center, formerly the Casper Events Center.
Each participant will receive a unique password that will allow access to two (2) reserved seat tickets for the competition. The passwords can only be used one time. WHSAA will distribute the codes to the AD’s of each school who will in turn distribute those passwords to the team participants.
Reserved participant seating will be on the south side of the arena and will be socially distanced in POD’s. POD Seating was created to execute a safe seating environment, limiting crossover interaction between fans where available. POD seating is available in select groupings of 2 per participant.
Tickets will be available through the link below linking into SinclairTix.com. Tickets will go on-sale on Monday, January 25th at 12:00 p.m (Noon) and will be available online only. Tickets must be purchased in quantities of two (2) and will be assigned on a first come first serve basis.
