Jesse Parker Legacy Foundation Award Winners

It all started when…

Coach Jesse Parker once said “My job is to get them to be better than they think they can be.” Our goal at the Jesse Parker Legacy Foundation is to encourage coaches and educators to continue to believe that they are making their students and athletes “better than they think they can be.”

Each year we will select a local coach or educator who demonstrates the same qualities that Coach Jesse Parker displayed in the classroom or on the sidelines. The Coach Jesse Parker Legacy Foundation Award will be handed out and a donation will be made to the coach or educators school on behalf of the Jesse Parker Legacy Foundation
