Hall of Fame – Coaches

Coaches volunteer their time and talents to help build the skills set of youth bowlers.  To recognize coaches for their dedication to the sport of Youth Bowling, the First Coast USBC Youth Hall of Fame Committee may select one (1) coach per year to be inducted into the FCUSBC Youth Coaches Hall of Fame.  This award is presented at the annual Coaches Memorial Ceremony, and the bowling center the coach represents will also receive a certificate of appreciation.

Anyone may submit the name of a coach to the FCUSBC Youth Hall of Fame Committee using the form below (forms from prior years cannot be used).  The deadline for nominations is December 31st of each year.  Please note: Nominees must have coached in the USBC Youth Program for a minimum of four (4) years in total, including the most recent three (3) years. NOTE: Coaches Hall of Fame nominees no longer have a requirement of being previously honored as Coach of the Year.
