What makes a #GoodSport?

It’s been a tough year for KC, including high school athletes whose dreams have taken a detour because of the pandemic. We want to recognize those athletes who, in spite of everything, have persevered and epitomized what it means to be a #GoodSport. We’re looking for high school athletes from bowling to basketball (and every sport in between) whose character and work ethic shine on and off the team. 

To honor this special class of athletes, Goodcents Deli Fresh Subs is teaming up with Sporting KC Team Captain — and former high school soccer star himself — Matt Besler. The top 10 finalists will appear in a commercial with Matt. They’ll also receive free subs for a year and Sporting KC swag.  (Commercial will be filmed in a way that ensures everyone’s health and safety.)

Here’s how it works:
