Most of you are aware of the passing of coach Stephen Crawford. Coach Crawford devoted much of his time and heart to the PYH family. In memory of Coach Crawford's devotion, endless patience and teaching, the Coach Crawford Award has been established.
We are asking that each
House Team Coach nominate a player based on the following criteria:
- Always gives 110% (coach Crawford's motto)
- Shows leadership
- Presents good sportsmanship
- Good attendance and attitude
- Understands and portrays the meaning of "being a team player"
- Is compassionate and supportive of all team members
- Shows respect for the game of hockey and all of its members
Please write a short summary of why you would nominate your player, and submit it to Diane Pepe at
no later than February 12th when a committee will select a player from each level within the A and B divisions. Recipient names will be displayed in the area of the west rink dedicated to Steve Crawford. In addition, recipients will be announced at the Big Thaw Tournament before each championship game with a trophy presentation. They will be notified prior, so they can attend.
This award should represent a significant achievement of a well rounded player. Coach Crawford instilled great confidence and humanity in his players. Steve always felt the best players were not necessarily the high scorers, but the players who gave, shared and understood the meaning of being a team player.
Any questions please contact Diane Pepe @ 585-615-1235.
