Azzip Pizza Coach Spotlight
“A good coach can change a game. A great coach can change a life.” – John Wooden
Azzip Pizza believes that great coaches are the heart of every team, inspiring athletes and creating lasting memories. That’s why we’re proud to shine a spotlight on the incredible coaches who make a difference in our community.
Every two weeks, a local coach from the Tri-state who goes above and beyond will be highlighted — whether they’re leading a youth club team or coaching at the high school level. These coaches are recognized for their hard work, dedication, and passion for the sport.
One lucky coach will be selected as the winner of the “Azzip Pizza Coach Spotlight,” announced live by Clay Roth during the Hot 96 Morning Show! The winner will receive a special prize package, including gift cards from Azzip Pizza and Play It Again Sports as a thank-you for their commitment to shaping the future of sports in our area.
Nominate a coach today and help us celebrate the unsung heroes who inspire greatness, one play at a time!
Featured Coach
Coach Mike Devoy of Junior Panthers Basketball
“When my daughter was in kindergarten and signed up for soccer I wanted to be involved. They needed coaches so I volunteered. Having never played soccer I was nervous I would fail miserably so I peppered my soccer friends with questions about the game, read coaching books, and committed to give it my all. About 10 minutes into the first practice, I realized that I loved coaching kids!
My goals at the beginning of each season are the same: ensure the kids have fun, they enjoy the season and want to play that sport next year, and they accomplish something they didn’t know was possible. My favorite part of youth sports is getting them fired up in a huddle to play before the game and remind them that star of our team is the team.”
