After several weeks of planning, I’m happy to announce today the introduction of the BlueStreak-Overtime FCIAC Player of the Week award. BlueStreak Sports Training in Stamford has agreed to become the exclusive advertiser on my blog.
Details of the process will be coming soon, but the award will be presented weekly throughout the school year. Coaches, athletic directors and readers will be able to nominate athletes on the blog, I will narrow the list to a number of finalists and BlueStreak will select the winner, who will receive a trophy and T-shirt.
My vision with this is ultimately to provide the opportunity to recognize athletes in all sports from all 19 FCIAC schools. I want readers to be involved in the process.
My thanks go out to BlueStreak president Matt Cole, who has been a big supporter of high school sports, for agreeing to be involved in what I think is going to be an exciting addition to the blog.
I’m in the process of finalizing the format, but if you have any ideas or comments please pass them along: maybe you will suggest something we have not thought of.
Check back soon for final details. The first award will be presented sometime in mid-December.
This is open to everyone throughout the FCIAC. BlueStreak is generously sponsoring the award. Most schools in the league are outside BlueStreak’s area and we want this to touch all sports at all schools. The more people who get on the blog to nominate people, the more candidates we will have.
Dave,
This is a great idea. With all due respect I would hope that the athlete nominated does not have to have participated in Blue Streak Training.
