Jefferson’s restaurants to name local ‘Coach of the Year’

Published 11:49 am Wednesday, October 9, 2024

Jefferson’s is excited to launch its inaugural run of the “Jefferson’s Coach of the Year” awards in the Chattanooga area, in honor of National Coaches Day. This initiative aims to celebrate the dedication, care, and community spirit of coaches who make a lasting impact both on their athletes’ lives and in the Chattanooga community. Each of the four Chattanooga metro Jefferson’s locations will award one Coach of the Year: Dalton, Kimball, Ringgold and Trenton.

The Jefferson’s Coach of the Year award is open to coaches of any sport and age level that live or work in the Dalton, Kimball, Ringgold and Trenton areas. Coaches can be nominated by anyone: athletes, parents and guardians of athletes or school officials.

The nomination period is open and closes on Oct. 20 at 11:59 p.m.

Each Jefferson’s location in the Chattanooga area (Dalton, Kimball, Ringgold and Trenton) will select one excellent coach for Jefferson’s Coach of the Year, for a total of four recipients. The winners will receive a $500 Jefferson’s gift card and their name added to the Jefferson’s Coach of the Year recognition plaque that is prominently displayed at the restaurant for all patrons to see.

“We know the impact of a good coach at Jefferson’s,” said Jefferson’s President Brandon Graham. “As a game day destination, many of our patrons are athletes, teams, and fans who’ve had their lives changed by excellent coaches. We want to do our part to recognize those individuals who go above and beyond for their teams.”

Athletes and schools interested in nominating a coach can submit their nominations via their location’s nomination form at jeffersons.com/coaches-day/ during the submission period. The winners will be announced on November 14.
