It’s that time of the year again, when the Coach of the Year Award is decided.
Your Volleyball Club is eligible to vote for the Coach of the Year – whether you play in the School’s Competitions, the JNL, or the Senior National Leagues…..you can vote!
• So, who has impressed you this year?
• Who has made their teams difficult to beat?
• Who has demonstrated great sportsmanship – or has been a fabulous competitor….your vote tells us.
There are 3 stages to the Award process;
Stage 1 – your Club nominates a Coach from another Club whom you think has done a great job. These initial nominations need to be made before the deadline of Sunday 6th May
Stage 2 – the Clubs of all those who have been nominated are asked to supply an endorsement for their Coach – they are asked to tell us just how good the Coach has been. The Club endorsement forms need to be returned before the deadline of Sunday 20th May.
Stage 3 – the completed club endorsement forms are reviewed by a ‘Jury Panel’ of experienced coaches and the winners selected.
It’s easy!
There are two categories of awards;
• Coach of a Female Team
• Coach of Male Team
The nomination process is open to those who are coaching at ALL LEVELS of competition in Scotland. Voting forms have been distributed to Clubs, but can also be obtained by contacting Stephanie at the SVA Office.
So, who is working to raise the performance bar? Who is driving the game forward and setting the performance standards……who are the male and female coaches of the year………it’s up to you!
