Dear Soccer Coaches:
The most prestigious award in the WYSL is the Double Goal Coach Award. This Award is given to
the coaches of teams who win their division and also win the Sportsmanship Award. Honorable
Mention Awards are given to coaches whose teams win their division and ranked 2nd in
Sportsmanship.
The WYSL would like to congratulate you on your team’s success last season- you were the only
25 teams out of more than 631 that earned these Awards in the Fall 2012 season. The leadership
that the coaches and managers have provided was critical to your team’s successes. To recognize
your unique achievement, the WYSL will post your names on the WYSL website page “Double-Goal
Coach Award – Fall 2012” and present to the 1st place winning team head coach (16) the book
“Positive Coaching”; to the 2nd place winning team head coach (10 Honorable Mentions) the book
“The Power of Double-Goal Coaching” both by Jim Thompson, the founder of The Positive Coaching

your coaching staff.
We applaud your efforts and wish you continuing success in your soccer future.
