Billy Brown Sports Award

Nomination Form

Deadline for Submission: April 10

Billy Brown graduated from Cape Elizabeth High School in 1981. He was a passionate athlete both on and off the field. Born with a heart defect, Billy overcame great odds simply to survive his early childhood. While attending Cape Elizabeth High School he enthusiastically participated in soccer and track. He was a big fan and supporter of all Cape Elizabeth sports. After graduating CEHS, Billy went on to coach baseball and softball at Yarmouth Middle School and soccer at Portland High School. With the same spirit and passion with which Billy always embraced sports, his family and friends have created this award for a deserving Yarmouth student.

The purpose of this award is to celebrate a graduating senior who clearly demonstrates a passion for sports through participation as an athlete, manager or mascot while at Yarmouth High School. The position held and individual sports are not as important as the student’s enthusiasm and commitment – a student who is there “for the love of it”. Eligible nominees are hard-working students who have achieved a consistent academic record. Academic excellence is not a requirement.

The Billy Brown Sports Award will be paid directly to the recipient and is to be used toward college expenses. Recipients may apply for renewal consideration throughout four years of college.

Nominations are invited from any coach working with students in the Athletic Program at Yarmouth High School.
