Chris Wilson Named 2010 VSA Girls Competitive Coach of the Year
In a presentation at the Annual General Meeting on the 19th of March, 2011; Chris Wilson was named the VSA Coach of the year by a committee of his peers and the VSA Board of Directors. Here is an excerpt from one of the nomination letters:
“The most important point I can make about Chris’s coaching is that he makes the game fun. He loves the game and he is able to bring out that love in all his players. When you take a look at all the girls who have stayed on his team year after year, it is clear these girls are having fun and are dedicated to him as their coach.”
Congrats on a job well done!
