After each regular season game, the basketball officials were asked by the MHSAA to provide feedback on the sportsmanship of each school’s players, coaches, administrators and fans. At the end of the basketball regular season, schools were ranked by the MHSAA and the top 100 boy’s teams and top 100 girl’s teams WHO HAD AT LEAST 5 GAMES “RATED” BY OFFICIALS were given an award banner the following season to hang in their school’s gym. (Beginning with 2013-14: Winning schools must have a BCAM Member Varsity Head Coach).
Note: This award will be discontinued after the 2018-2019 year due to not enough teams receiving at least 5 ranked games by officials during the season.
