Norton Wild Card Teams

Norton Wild Card Team Applications

LifeSmarts welcomes new teams to enjoy the camaraderie and high level of competition at the National LifeSmarts Championship!

Again in 2024, the LifeSmarts and Norton Wild Card application process provides an opportunity for new Varsity teams (grades 9 – 12) to earn travel stipends to allow them to attend and compete in the 2024 National LifeSmarts Championship and contend for scholarships and prizes.

The Norton and LifeSmarts Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Initiative
To increase LifeSmarts’ reach in underserved communities, Norton and LifeSmarts have partnered to create targeted opportunities with direct support to first-time attendees at the 2024 National LifeSmarts Championship, April 18-21, in San Diego, CA. This successful partnership began in 2023, and nine teams attended that year’s National LifeSmarts Championship thanks to assistance from Norton.

2024 National LifeSmarts Championship team support
The signature component of the LifeSmarts and Norton Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion initiative is funding to ensure that new teams can attend the 2024 National LifeSmarts Championship without financial burden. Ten teams will receive a full travel stipend ($4,000) that may be used to cover the cost of travel and hotel rooms. The LifeSmarts State Coordinator will receive a $500 stipend to assist with recruitment costs, team assistance, and travel expenses.
