One winner ("Winner") will be selected for each MLB Club, based on favorite MLB Club designated by each Contestant.

Round 1: Each eligible Entry received during the Contest Entry Period will be judged by Sponsor based on the following equally weighted judging criteria: 1) personal story, 2) passion, 3) presentation, and 4) overall appeal. Up to ninety (90) top scoring Entries, three (3) per MLB Club, will advance to Round 2 of the Contest as potential "Finalists." In the event of a tie, the potential Finalist from among the tied Entries with the highest score for overall appeal will advance to Round 2. In the event of a further tie, the potential Finalist from among the tied Entries with the highest score for presentation will advance to Round 2. In the event of a further tie, Sponsor will re-judge the tied Entries based on overall appeal and, at the Sponsor's sole discretion, select the Entry as a potential Finalist. Sponsor reserves the right to advance fewer than ninety (90) Entries to Round 2 if, in its sole discretion, an insufficient number of eligible and/or qualified Entries are received.

Round 2: After potential Finalists are determined, each potential Finalist will be contacted by the Sponsor and/or its designated agent on or about May 13, 2014. Each Potential Finalist (i.e. Nominee) will be required to execute, notarize and return an Affidavit of Eligibility (or, if a resident of Canada, a Declaration of Eligibility), Grant of Rights & Release of Liability and, unless prohibited by law, a Publicity Release ("Affidavit/Grant/Release") within five (5) days from the date of notification. In addition, at the Sponsor's discretion, each potential Finalist will be subject to a background check, including, but not limited to, education verification, professional verification, employment verification and criminal history. Each Contestant hereby authorizes the MLB Entities and Target, as well as Sponsor, to review his/her Affidavit/Grant/Release and results of his/her background check if he/she is a potential Finalist. To the extent required by law, each potential Finalist shall authorize such background check and Sponsor reserves the right, in Sponsor's sole discretion and in consultation with the MLB Entities and Target, to disqualify any potential Finalist based on the background check. If the Affidavit/Grant/Release is not returned within the time allowed, the potential Finalist will be disqualified and the potential Finalist with the next highest score may be declared the alternate Finalist. Any potential Finalist from Canada will be required to pass a skill testing procedure in the form of an additional essay, explaining in fifty (50) words or less why he/she enjoys being a fan of the MLB Club of his/her choice. Essay will be judged against other such essays based equally on: 1) enthusiasm; 2) presentation; and 3) overall appeal.

Round 2 Public Voting Phase: All Finalist Entries as determined by Sponsor will be posted at www.allstarteachers.com so that the general public can view each Finalist Entry and vote on their favorite Finalist between the period beginning on or about 12:01 AM ET on June 5, 2014 and ending at 11:59 PM ET on June 29, 2014 (the "Voting Period"). Each Finalist Entry may be voted on by the general public, including by each Contestant. A Contestant may vote for his or her own Finalist Photo.

To vote, a person clicks on the voting link within the Voting Gallery as prompted.

Contestants who spam or create false accounts (or otherwise undertake any act intended to manipulate or undermine the integrity of the Public Voting Phase of the Contest) for the purpose of casting votes will have their votes disqualified and their Entries may be voided (if applicable). Public votes may be disqualified by the Sponsor if they are cast from multiple email addresses using the same IP address or have been solicited directly by Contestants from a blog and/or public forum. False or deceptive Entries or acts will also render the Contestant ineligible and Sponsor may disqualify them as the potential winner. Decisions of the Sponsor are final relating to all aspects of the online voting process and results. The Sponsor may disqualify any vote or Entry if Contestant or related parties violate any of the terms and conditions attached to the Contest or these Official Rules.

Round 2 Final Judging Phase: Following the Public Voting Phase, the Finalist Entries will be judged by a panel of judges appointed by People (the "Final Judges"), who shall use the criteria set forth below to determine the Winners. The Finalist Entries will be graded based on the following pre-determined set of criteria:

1. Personal Story: 20%
2. Passion: 20%
3. Presentation: 20%
4. Overall Appeal: 20%
5. Public voting preferences from the Public Voting Phase (20%).

In the event of a tie, the Finalist (from among the tied Entries) with the highest score for overall appeal will be declared the Winner. In the event of a further tie, Sponsor will re-judge the tied Entries based on overall appeal and, at the Sponsor's sole discretion, select a winning Entry. The Winners will be announced on or about July 10, 2014.

For the avoidance of doubt, those Finalists who are not selected Winners will not receive any prize or compensation of any kind.
