The first Nicholas E. Powel award was established in 1990 to recognize outstanding work done by an official at the grass roots level. As we all know, these officials are the back bone of officiating.
Each year the Sectional Chairs (there are 17 sections) have an opportunity to nominate an official for this esteemed award. A nomination form is submitted outlining the work and activies performed by the official during the last year and their outstanding qualities. A committee reviews the nominations and selects a winner.
This award is given during the Official's Awards Meeting at the US Open, this year's receipient was Eileen Leonard.
ETUA thanks Eileen for her continued dedication to grass roots officiating.
