Top coach honoured

awardDAVIDSON-Last Tuesday at Davidson School’s annual pep rally Blair Frederickson was presented with the SHSAA West Central Outstanding Male Coach of the Year for the 2013-2014 school year.
The award recognizes coaches who lead quality programs, display good sportsmanship and instills these values through coaching and involve a large segment of the school’s population.
Frederickson was nominated by Davidson School student Andrew Read, who was motivated to nominate him because of the impact that Frederickson has made in his life with his involvement in senior and junior football, junior basketball and bantam hockey.
“He made me appreciate each sport more and encouraged me to push myself to do better,” Andrew said. He knew in June that his nominee had won the award but it hadn’t arrived in time to be presented at Davidson’s yearend awards ceremony, so it was presented at the earliest opportunity this school year with Andrew presenting it to a man that he has quickly gained respect for.
“Mr. Frederickson has made an impact on not only this school, but on the community,” Andrew said.
