The Al Perlini Award

The Al Perlini Award is presented each year to a WSC representative for their outstanding contributions to promote the game of soccer and to mentor the youth of Warminster Soccer Club. Each winner’s name is engraved into a plaque located next to Field B at Munro Community Park in Warminster.

 

Congrats to Tom Knoll, our 2024 Al Perlini Award recipient!

A huge thank you to Coach Tom Knoll, who has not only been a volunteer at our club for many years but also an inspiring mentor to all those that come in contact with him. Tom has been with WSC for many, many years and we greatly appreciate his support and mentoring of not only our youth but our volunteers as well. He is what many of us volunteers strive to be. Thank you so much Coach Tom for all you do and have done for so many years!

37th Perlini Award – Tom Knoll

 

Congrats to Steven S. Kurz, Sr., our 2023 Al Perlini Award recipient!

Thank you to Steve and his family for their many contributions to the Perlini tournament both as a sponsor through his company, volunteer, coach and most notably (the way he likes it) quietly behind the scenes.

 

Congrats to Brian Dayton, our 2022 Al Perlini Award recipient!

Thank you to Brian and his family for their many contributions to our club from representing our club through his many years of coaching, as well as all his hard work with our WSC Board of Directors and his many years of service to our club. Many days, nights, weekends, etc. you will see him cutting the fields and performing so many behind the scenes and needed tasks – THANK YOU BRIAN!

 

Congrats to Lou DeFonteny, our 2021 Al Perlini Award recipient!

Thank you to Lou and his family for his many years of service as a Board Member and Fields Director, but also as an amazing coach for the WSC Girls Strikers Team – we appreciate all you do for this club! You are greatly appreciated!

 

Congrats to Patrick Casey, our 2020 Al Perlini Award recipient!

Thank you to Pat and his amazing family – without Pat what would we do! We have been lucky enough to have had Pat as our board Vice President & Registrar, mentor, Fields anchor, coach of multiple teams, stand in training for many teams, club advocate with the township and so much more here at WSC. Without Pat many of the current processes wouldn’t be in place for this club. Thank you for your many contributions, public and so many more behind the scenes, making the club what it is today! Shout out to Pat’s son Gavin, who was not only a player here at WSC but is also a huge help to this club with refereeing, cutting, and so much more!

 

More to come from past years…
