Illinois Attorney General Kwame Raoul announced Wednesday that the state has joined an $82.5 million proposed antitrust settlement with Varsity Brands. As a result, Illinois consumers who paid to participate in Varsity Brands’ cheer competitions or camps, or purchased Varsity apparel from December 10, 2016 through March 31, 2024 will be eligible to receive recovery funds. Consumers must file claims to receive reimbursement, and Attorney General Raoul is encouraging people to sign up to receive more information.
