Athletic Director/Administrator Award

Athletic Director/Administrator of the Year Award

Out there – somewhere – are some very fine school administrators who make a huge difference in the success of our coaches and cheerleaders! Now it’s our turn to do something for them!

The ICCA would like to recognize those athletic/activity directors and school administrators who actively support and promote cheerleading in their schools and communities. Many of our AD’s and principals are instrumental in promoting our programs, and we need to reward and commend these individuals for their support. The winner will be invited to our spring banquet and awarded with a plaque.

This year we will award a special athletic director or administrator for this award.

The criteria for nomination are as follows:

The athletic/activity director or administrator must be nominated by his/her cheerleading coach who is a member of the ICCA.
