Create a customized Site for your school to elevate your programs, build your brand, promote your events, and connect with your community!
What's On a Site?
Your customized Site will display your upcoming streaming games on the NFHS Network, event tickets available on your GoFan page, your Schedule, photos, links to your fundraisers, your team store, and any additional links you'd like to include in the More menu.
You'll see links to buy tickets, watch live events, and a featured countdown to your featured upcoming event.
