June 8th was the annual Tigers Athletics Awards BBQ. Each student who played on a YHS team received a participation pin and coaches shared highlights about each team’s year, recognizing the Most Valuable Teammate for each team. It was a fun evening that celebrated our many talented athletes.
Most Valuable Teammate Award
Criteria: in the opinion of their coach(es) demonstrates the character, leadership, and skills that contribute to team success that qualifies them as the most valuable teammate. You may consider this as an MVP award, but often a team may have an individual who is not the most skilled player, the “all-star”, or top point scorer, but whose leadership and character, combined with their ability is the most valuable individual to the team.
