Theresa Sherry Announced as 2023 Coach of the Year

Positive Coaching Alliance is thrilled to announce Theresa Sherry as the 2023 Double-Goal Coach of the Year, presented by TeamSnap.

Earlier this month, PCA announced the top 25 national winners of the Double-Goal Coach® award, and following another round of reviews with the selection committee, Sherry was a standout choice for the way she empowers young women through the sport of lacrosse.

Sherry created her lacrosse club, The Tenacity Project, a non-profit organization, as a way to give back to the game and the sport that has been so critical in her life. The club is about so much more than lacrosse. They focus on mental health, leadership, and physical health training as part of their curriculum. They are empowering young women through lacrosse to have the best outcomes in life. Through The Tenacity Project scholarship and aid programs, all girls have access to lacrosse, even if their circumstances would not normally allow it.

This past weekend, PCA had the chance to catch up with Sherry in Indio, CA, where six Tenacity teams were participating in the 2023 Sand Storm Lacrosse Festival.
