Teams compete in both recreational and competitive divisions, earning points throughout the year at the monthly tournaments. The school with the highest total points at the end of the year is awarded the Becker Cup, named after our District ESS Director, Patrick Becker.

This years winner is Desert Edge led by Coaches Jill Majewski, Brandon Lee and Doug Wilson!
