Legacy Leadership Award

Wisconsin Basketball Coaches Executive Board Members and seniors in high school are eligible for the WBCA-MACC Fund Legacy Leadership Award in recognition of demonstrable leadership qualities, characteristics in interpersonal relationships, and achievement as leaders of the WBCA and members of a school community. The award will honor the legacy, leadership, and lives of John Cary, Jerry Petitgoue, and David Royston.

Legacy is about life and living. It's about learning from the past, living in the present and building for the future. The power of legacy enables us to live fully in the present with a responsibility to those who come after us. We are a part of a larger community, a community that has the special opportunity to celebrate its history with the goal to build a future filled with promise and hope.

This award will be given annually to an Executive Board member who demonstrates the exemplary qualities of character, courage, and service. A student who represents the same qualities of leadership will be selected as the co-recipient of the award. The Executive Board member and student will honored at the All-Star Game Awards Banquet and Program, in June, in Wisconsin Dells.

“Leadership is not a job title, it is a characteristic of life. We lead by our attitudes, by our responses to authority, by the words we speak, and by the examples we set. With a vision for the future and a heart for people, leaders can motivate and inspire others to action. A leader is someone others want to follow; a good leader is someone who is worth following.”
