South Kitsap High School Only Washington School In Running For $1 Million Grand Prize In T Mobile Friday Night 5G Lights Contest - 09/30/25
Port Orchard, WA — September 30, 2025- South Kitsap High School is proud to announce it has been selected as one of the Top 25 finalists in T-Mobile’s “Friday Night 5G Lights” competition. As a finalist, South Kitsap will receive a $25,000 grant and host a T-Mobile–sponsored Homecoming Game celebration on October 3 with giveaways, fan gear, and a halftime check presentation.
South Kitsap High School is now in the voting phase, during which communities across the country are encouraged to rally behind their school by casting daily votes. Every school in the Top 25 is in the running for a $1 million grand prize field upgrade, plus bonus awards and enhancements. Voting runs from September 25 through October 24, and the grand prize winner will be announced on October 30, 2025.
South Kitsap High School has a legacy of tradition and pride. The 1994 state football championship remains a landmark moment in the school’s history and a source of ongoing pride for students, alumni, staff, and the Port Orchard community. Yet over the years, facility upgrades have lagged, especially after repeated bond proposals failed to pass. The opportunity brought on by T-Mobile’s program could transform the stadium for student and community use, improve safety, enhance the fan experience, and create a lasting legacy for future Wolves.
