A RESOLUTION to honor and commend the Grassy Fork Lady Ravens girls' basketball team upon winning the Cocke County Elementary Basketball Tournament.

By recognizing the girls' success in a public forum, it aims to restore hope and unity in the community and showcase the positive role that youth sports can play in local society. Acknowledgment from the General Assembly brings visibility to the achievements of student athletes and may inspire other young individuals in the area.
HJR0235 is a resolution introduced in the Tennessee General Assembly that aims to honor and commend the Grassy Fork Lady Ravens girls' basketball team for their outstanding achievement in winning the Cocke County Elementary Basketball Tournament in both 2024 and 2025. This commendation highlights the significance of the team's back-to-back championships, marking the first time in the school's history they have accomplished this feat. The resolution draws attention to the team's immense talent, perseverance, and character as student athletes, emphasizing their competitive spirit and contributions to their community.
While there may be no substantial contention directly tied to the resolution itself, discussions surrounding such commendations can often highlight broader themes regarding the importance of youth sports and community support. There may be debates about resource allocation for sports programs versus educational needs, but these discussions are peripheral to the resolution's central intent of honoring the team's accomplishments and the communal spirit that it embodies.
