Vancouver Island Soccer for Young Athletes
Club Awards
To enhance and support the Mid-Isle Soccer Club’s mission to develop high-quality, well-rounded Athletes, Coaches, Officials, and Club Members, we have a number of annual Club Awards, with trophies to be presented to the winners at our Annual Awards Night.
Nominations for these awards can be accepted all season long, with the cutoff date of mid-March. At that time, the Club Award Committee will then read all nomination letters, and invite the top three finalists to the Awards Banquet. The nomination letters will be read at the banquet to honour all three nominees for the trophy. The winner will get their name on the big trophy and will receive a small trophy to keep for themselves.
All nomination letters should be emailed to midisletreas@gmail.com with the subject line “Award Nomination”. Award Committee Members can be any Member of the Club.
