OSSAA and COUNTRY Financial Announce Statewide Partnership to Support High School Athletics and Educators
OKLAHOMA CITY, OK — The Oklahoma Secondary School Activities Association (OSSAA) is proud to announce a new statewide partnership with COUNTRY Financial, which will serve as the Presenting Sponsor of the OSSAA Football State Championships.
COUNTRY Financial’s support will also extend beyond the gridiron. As the Title Sponsor of the Monthly Teacher Spotlight, the organization will help honor outstanding educators across Oklahoma with well-deserved recognition and support. Furthermore, COUNTRY Financial will provide a donation to a winning school through an upcoming promotion, reinforcing their deep commitment to students, schools, and communities.
“For a century, we’ve stood by individuals, families, and businesses—quietly doing the work that helps people thrive through life’s ups and downs,” said Mark Morley, Oklahoma District Leader at COUNTRY Financial. “Being part of something as unifying and inspiring as the state football championships is a natural extension of our vision to enrich lives in the communities we serve. We’re thrilled to champion these young athletes and join Oklahomans in celebrating the tradition and pride that high school football brings to this great state.”
“COUNTRY Financials’ support of our Football State Championships is a powerful example of community partnership in action. From honoring educators through the Teacher Spotlight to launching the Gridiron Giveaway, their investment directly uplifts schools, students, and fans across Oklahoma,” said David Jackson, Executive Director of OSSAA.
This dynamic partnership underscores both organizations’ shared commitment to uplifting youth, honoring educators, and strengthening Oklahoma’s school communities through intentional, values-driven initiatives. For more information on the OSSAA and this partnership, visit ossaa.com/OSSAA
