The Grishman Award Peter Grishman was a tireless volunteer and active member in Chappaqua's AYSO
program. He was one of those coaches and volunteers who seemed to make time to
help out with any task at any time. As a member of the Chappaqua AYSO Board of
Directors, Peter served as a vigilant supporter and protector of AYSO's five
core principles known as EBOPS (Everyone plays, Balanced teams, Open
registration, Positive coaching and Sportsmanship), ensuring that all kids in
Chappaqua had the opportunity to learn, play and enjoy soccer at a high level.
Aside from his unending efforts as a coach and Board member, Peter single
handedly took over and revamped the referee program, serving as Chappaqua AYSO's
chief referee (reffing two or three games each Sunday), staffing all of the
weekend's games and training new referees. It was Peter who first reached out to
the youth of the community, successfully encouraging them to volunteer as
referees. |
