The Gold Star Team of the Week is back for the 2026 season!
Each week, Gold Star and TriStateFootball.com will recognize 10 teams from across the Greater Cincinnati area for their performances on the field. Fans will then decide which team earns the title of Gold Star Team of the Week.
Voting is open now through Wednesday at 12 p.m. ET. Fans may vote once per hour, per IP address. Voting activity is monitored, and any votes determined to be fraudulent will be removed.
Each weekly winner will receive a special award presented at their school by Gold Star and TriStateFootball.com.
Team of the Week Rules: Once a team wins, it is no longer eligible to be nominated during the 2026 regular season. Teams may be nominated a maximum of three times during the season.
