Steve Maloney and Frank DeGeorge |
This past Monday at the ASA Board meeting, ASA recognized two outgoing board members that have served Agawam Soccer as a volunteer for many years.
Steve Maloney has been with Agawam Soccer Association for over 20 years as both a coach and a board member, dedicating countless hours of time to the youth soccer players in Agawam. Steve served most recently as the ASA registrar, in charge of player registrations, league player passes, coach and volunteer background checks,and insurance for all members involved. All the little things that are so important that go on behind the scenes. Steve stayed on the board for many years after his children had aged out of the league
Frank DeGeorge has been with Agawam Soccer Association for over 15 years, serving as a: coach, board member, and vice-president of the board for many years. Frank was recognized by Mass Youth Soccer as the 2015 Girls Coach Of The Year. Frank has held many differnt positions and recently his last duty was to head up the Agawam Soccer Childs Protection Policy that clearly outlines the steps Agawam Soccer takes in providing and ensuring the safety of the children in Agawam Soccer.
"Frank and Steve really epitomize the meaning of a volunteer," states ASA President Brian Regnier. "Both Steve and Frank worked tirelessly behind the scenes and in the best interest of the youth soccer players in the association. Throughout the years and in countless situations, they both have always done what was best for the kids. No personal agendas and never looking for gratitude, they both worked to improve Agawam Soccer and always put the kids first. It has been great working with both of them and the whole board thanks them for their years of dedication to Agawam Soccer."
Both Steve and Frank received some nice Agawam Soccer winter coats and a gift certificate for dinner. They will also receive the honor of having an Agawam Soccer Scholarship re-named for one year in their honor to an outgoing senior at Agawam High School. The "Steve Maloney and Frank DeGeorge ASA Scholarship" will be given out this spring in addition to the other scholarships Agawam Soccer offers.
Thank you both on an outstanding volunteer career with Agawam Soccer.
