COACH OF THE YEAR 2006 -
The Executive Board of LYSL is proud to announce that our selection for
Coach of the Year is David Schlientz. David was nominated by his
U14 Girls team and to date; we have not seen such an active support
group of a coach! He received many letters of support that clearly
outlined their respect and admiration for his coaching skills.
A native
of Livermore and former LYSL player himself, Dave has given back to his
community in many ways, including coaching many of our kids (boys and
girls) for years out of the sheer love of the game. Some standout
comments about David from his team included outlining his coaching that
"kindles a love for the game and a passion for the sport", "he does not
yell at us from the sidelines", and "not just a coach, but an awesome
player also". Every parent and player that sent in their support
indicated that the player was always learning something new. One parent
noted that David made sure that all players had the opportunity to
score, and most did. The words "integrity" and "sportsmanship" were used
by everyone that wrote to us about him. Dave is also active in adult
league soccer. Focused on "team" has earned David the most praise over
time.
Thank you to Coach Dave's Assistant Coach Drew Betts for
driving the nomination process for the team.
Since David is the LYSL Coach of the Year and holds an "E" coaching
license, we nominated Coach Schlientz to CYSA District III as the
District Girls Coach of the Year.
Congratulations, David! We are proud to have you as a member and a coach
in the league!
Coach Schlientz was presented with his award of recognition at
the
LYSL
Full Board meeting on December 12,
2006, 7:30pm at the Mountain Mike's
Pizza on First Street. The room was filled with supportive team parents,
players, and the two Assistant Coaches he particularly thanked for their
support,
Drew Betts,
and
Robert Felicitas..

Livermore Youth Soccer League
is proud to announce the 2005
Coaches of the Year! The decision
was difficult as all each candidate
had great support from their teams.
Dean coaches both a girls
and a boys team. It was the
boy's team that nominated
Dean this year. They sited
his positive motivation of
these young players and his
dedication to the game. They
specifically noted his
Positive Coaching Alliance
principles. Dean has an "E"

Rick was nominated by his
team for practicing what he
preaches, being encouraging
to this team and providing
positive reinforcement to
his players. He takes the
time to teach both
experienced and

player credit for their
accomplishments. One of his
player recognized that he
was full of energy. Rick has
been coach in our league for
5 years.
Larry is an outstanding
coach that received
wonderful comments from his
team that nominated him this
year. Coincidently, the
night after our Exec Board
met to make our make the
coaching selections, I
happened to meet a coach
where I was eating dinner.
He talked about with
enthusiasm about coaching
his young boy's team. What
impressed me most was his
support and re-enforcement
of the
Positive Coaching Alliance
principles. Each of his
players know about ROOTs.
His team noted his patience,
upbeat, and ability to teach
strategies to the kids were
his main coaching strengths.

receiving an award of recognition at
the
