Coach of the Year

Coach of the Year is a prestigious honor given to a coach each cheerleading year, and is awarded at the NLCA Provincial Cheerleading Championships. The Coach of the Year is one who dedicates a considerable amount of time over and about the allotted practice time, and shows a great deal of enthusiasm towards the team and the sport as a whole. A coach of the year is more than just a coach - they are a role model for all athletes that they come in contact with.
