Coaches Jim Porter, Dalton Hossman, and Nick Groves. They help the Springfield Storm youth football team in many ways. Even since one of our coaches passed, they have been striving to make this year great for the parenta and player.

Coach Chad Ryan at DSM North High School!

I nominate Shelley Weeks, coach of the Elite under 11 Volleyball team which just came back from St. Louis with a 3rd place finish! She is a truly dedicated motivational!

Coach Matthew Jones with the Springfield Ravens football team. He not only a coach but a mentor to the boys too. He pushes them to be better on the field and off the field. Being a single mother he was other for my son and to teach him to be better man. https://www.facebook.com/ravensyouth/

Coach Stefanie Work, dance coach from Sioux City Just for Kix. Stefanie is so very dedicated to teaching our girls hard work, dedication, team work and #1 good sportsmanship! Coach Stefanie goes above and beyond to make sure every girl is included! Above all her motto is "doing your best is more important than being the best"

This is awesome! Thanks for offering this up. There seem to be some outstanding coaches in the area. I gave coach Jessica Mabe a hard time last year but must say that she has become one of my favorite coaches! She pushes my daughters while still encouraging them and building their confidence. I can be a hard mom to deal with sometimes and she has always been respectful to me, even when I know she wants to tell me I’m acting out of the mom place over the rational place 😂. She is outstanding and has a long successful future ahead of her!!!

I would love to see Ivory Joe Hunt win this amazing award. He has dedicated over 40 years teaching and instilling values in our young men and women in District 11. I don't think a week goes by that he doesn't have a former student come by to visit. He learns EVERY child by their full name. He is amazing and deserves this great award.

Coach Dida Finch and coach Brooke Graham with Diamond Elite Cheer and Tumble. They have impacted so many athletes in the gym and have given us such a motivational environment. They devote so much time to us and believe in us with everything we do. As a very successful first year gym they have already taken us so far.

Coach and AD Jerry Shields of Murray. Coaches girls basketball and volleyball. Is not only a coach, but a friend to MANY of his players. He also officiates basketball, volleyball and umpires softball. Goes way beyond his duties as a coach and an athletic director and for very little pay. Oh, and he's also my father. 😀 #BlessedBeyondBelief

Definitely Coach Tyler Stewart! He is a fabulous PE teacher! He also officiates games when he’s not working with at risk students or spending time with his family. He’s a leader in our school, a master teacher that trains new teachers, and a huge part of the positive culture at Weller Elementary in Springfield.

I vote for coach Jill Soenen Winter she teaches cheerleading and also does dance class . She is a really good coach and person.
