| | | | | | Kim Everist, coach of the Campolindo High School Water Polo Team and USA Junior National Water Polo Team, has won Positive Coaching Alliance's coveted Double-Goal Coach Award Presented by Liberty Mutual Insurance for her positive impact on youth athletes.
The award is for coaches whose first goal is winning, and whose second, more important goal is teaching life lessons through sports. Everist will receive her award at Positive Coaching Alliance's 2010 National Youth Sports Awards Dinner and Auction sponsored by Deloitte, April 17, at Stanford University's Maples Pavilion.
"Kim wins on the scoreboard, and more importantly, she wins by creating a positive, character-building sports experience for youth athletes," said Jim Thompson, PCA's founder and executive director. "Ultimately, the youth athletes Kim coaches are the real winners, and as those athletes become tomorrow's leaders our society as a whole wins."
