Lauren Matheson was honoured for coaching excellence and Elena Thomas and Corine Masich were honoured for organizing track and field during the BC Summer Games held in Prince George in July.
Prince George Track & Field Club junior development coach Lauren Matheson has received the BC Athletics top honour for her work with local athletes.
On Saturday night, during the BC Athletics Awards Gala in Vancouver, Matheson was honoured in the Coaching Excellence category. “We are so proud of her and she is so deserving,” Elena Thomas, Prince George Track & Field Club president, said. “I think Lauren wanted to be head coach of junior development since she started coaching many years ago. She has a great program and the kids enjoy themselves and the parents enjoy themselves and we’re getting good athletes out of the program. She should be very proud of what she does. She gives 110 per cent to the club and I’m very very proud of her.
Thomas and Corine Masich were also honoured at the gala, acknowledging their leadership roles in organizing track and field events at the BC Summer Games at Masich Place Stadium in Prince George in July. The dynamic duo received the Executive of the Year Award for Volunteer Service for their extraordinary efforts to make the games a success.
