Do you have a favorite coach that deserves some special recognition? 
    You have until Nov. 30 to get your nomination in for the Double-Goal Coach Award, presented by the Positive Coaching Alliance (PCA), a national non-profit organization that has helped create a positive character-building youth sports environment for more than 3 million youth sports athletes since 1998.
    A PCA Double-Goal Coach is someone who wants to win, AND has a second goal: to help players develop positive character traits so they can be successful in life.  While winning is important, helping players learn "life lessons" is more important to this kind of coach.  Does that sound like someone you know?
   You can go to www.positivecoach.org to get an online form to submit your nomination.  Winners will receive a commemorative certificate and an expenses-paid trip to PCA's 8th Annual National Youth Sports Awards Ceremony in April.  
    Award finalists will be notified in January and eventual winners will be notified in February.
