2021 National Double-Goal Coach® Award Winner Elijah Weaver, Lakewood Ranch High School

03.09.2021

“Winning is ultimately the goal and it’s important because through hard work you can achieve a great outcome. Those individuals and teams that put in a lot of hard work, a lot of dedication, usually yield a very good outcome. But I also want my athletes to know when they leave the field each day that they always have me to talk to and lean on.”

Coach Elijah Weaver

“This [award] is a great compliment to our coaching staff, not only here at Lakewood Ranch High School, but district-wide. Our partnership with PCA has gone a long way in helping develop a culture where it’s not just a win-first mentality but a win-be-a-part-of the bigger picture of developing a culture of respect and leadership and giving these kids a life skill-set they can develop throughout the rest of their life.”

-Jason Montgomery, District Supervisor of Athletics, Manatee County Schools
