We want you to treasure your hard-earned awards, but we know there comes a time when some people want to let them go. If you've been doing your summer cleaning and have awards you're ready to part with, we'd love to give them a second life at future tournaments. With your help, we recycled over 22 pounds of medals this past year! 🏅♻️

What Can Be Recycled
- Both medals and trophies from any division
- Must be in like-new condition
- Standard regional and state level awards only
Ways to Recycle
- Drop off at a VASO tournament
- Email [email protected] to arrange a separate drop off
