Player of the Week Program
Launched in Spring 2025, MYSA’s Player of the Week (POTW) Program is a fun way to celebrate the players who make a difference both on and off the field!
This award isn’t just about goals, saves, or fancy footwork. A Player of the Week might be someone who:
- Shows great sportsmanship and respect for teammates, opponents, and referees.
- Leads by example with a positive attitude.
- Puts the team first, encouraging and supporting others.
- Works hard in practice and shows improvement.
- Makes an impact on the game—big or small—that helps the team succeed.
Each week, coaches will nominate one player from their team. From those nominations, a select group of Players of the Week will be chosen from across our Intramural, G4, G5/6, and G7/8 programs. Winners will be featured on MYSA’s social media so our whole community can cheer them on!
Being named Player of the Week is all about effort, character, and teamwork. Every player has the chance to shine.
