The MHSFCA is proud to continue its collaboration with Positive Athlete to provide the MHSFCA All-State Leadership Award exclusively to the student-athletes of our member coaches.
The MHSFCA All-State Leadership Award will honor one (1) football and one (1) girls flag football student-athlete who exemplify exceptional leadership both on and off the field. These individuals serve as role models within their teams and make a meaningful, lasting impact on their schools and communities.
This award aligns with Positive Athlete’s mission to celebrate high school student-athletes who demonstrate strong character, leadership, and resilience—qualities that MHSFCA coaches work to instill in their athletes every day.
All student-athletes in grades 9–12 who play for MHSFCA member coaches are eligible to be nominated.
Nominations are NOW OPEN and will close on May 16, 2027. Award recipients will be recognized during theEast-West All-Star Game at Lawrence Technological University in June 2027 and will be eligible for additional Positive Athlete scholarships and awards.
We strongly encourage each MHSFCA coach to nominate at least one deserving student-athlete from their team for this meaningful recognition.
