Message receive by Tom Kimball, Canton Girls Tennis Coach:

“Dear Fellow Coach,

Congratulations on being selected as the Regional Coach of the Year by your peers.  This award certainly reflects their respect for you and your efforts in the success of your team this season.  Success is not always measured just by your win/loss record or finish in the regional tournament.  This award highlights your impact on the individuals on your team, your school, and Michigan high school tennis, as well.

The MHSTeCA proudly nominates you to the Board of Directors for consideration for the State Coach of the Year.  You should feel good about the fact that you were considered for this high honor amidst some of the best in the state.

Again, congratulations on a successful season and thanks for all you do for young athletes and the sport of tennis.”
