In addition to this main purpose, it is hoped that this program will help participants develop leadership, teamwork and communication skills.

The Clover Bowl began in 1994 in Wilson County. Mitch Beaty saw the need for 4-H'ers to become more knowledgeable in the areas of 4-H, Tennessee, Agriculture and Family and Consumer Sciences. This contest is now available to 64 counties. Forty counties/144 teams/576 4-H'ers participated at two regional contests in 2006! It is estimated over 9,000 4-H'ers participate in this contest on the county level.

 

A document has been made for counties to use to publicize the Clover Bowl. It has photos of the 2006 winners of the Eastern Region Clover Bowl along with highlights of the event. Click CB if you would like to download it.
