PLayer Nomination

KCOHL Award Nominations

Please nominate one player for each award below.

Each section includes the award title, a short summary, the full description that captures the spirit of the award, and last year's winner for context.

Note: The two Mega Awards for KCOHL Supporter of the Year and the Best Beer Man Award will be announced at the Golf Tournament, so they are not included in this nomination form.

The Cooler Commitment Award

For the guy who treats the beer cooler like a fifth teammate.

This one goes out to the player who’s got his priorities straight: beer before the game, beer after the game, and probably one during intermission if there’s time. You know the type. He's not just bringing the cooler, he’s halfway through one before the Zamboni finishes its first lap. A true professional in the art of pre game preparation.

Last year's winner: HUY (Pronounced "Weeeeeee!")

Enter the player name you want to nominate.

Anger Management Award

Awarded to the player most likely to debate every call, chirp their own teammates, and make the ref consider early retirement.

Some guys play the game with their stick. Some play it with their skates. But this beauty plays it with raw emotional outbursts and loud monologues directed at the refs, the bench, and occasionally the laws of physics. For the man who always keeps things heated, here’s a little recognition before your next two minutes for unsportsmanlike.

Last year's winner: Marc Swirsky

Last year's honorable mentions:
Adam Gertner vs Kjol Bjordal
Adam Vanderwalle vs President Chris Nault

Brittle Bones Award (The Nasty Injury Award)

Presented to the player who gave their body to the game. Literally.

Every year one of us pushes it just a little too far. Whether it's a heroic backcheck gone sideways or a toe pick heard round the rink. This award goes to the guy whose season came with a trip to the clinic, a new appreciation for painkillers, and probably an ice pack that’s still sitting in their freezer. Rest up, warrior.

Last year's winner: Kevin Cuthbert (Snapped his weak ankle running into his own teammate)

The Ironman Award

For the player who shows up more reliably than the Zamboni.

This guy hasn’t missed a game since dial up internet. Rain, snow, wedding anniversary, it doesn’t matter. He’s there taping his stick and lacing up before half the team is even out of their cars. Whether he’s 100 percent healthy or running on ibuprofen and stubbornness, he’s the first to the rink and the last to admit he needs a night off. The league runs on this kind of commitment.

Last year's winner: Chris Lavalee

Enter the player name you want to nominate.

The Longest Shift Award

Presented to the player who isn’t quite sure where his linemates went, so he stays out there until they come back.

This award goes to the player who hops over the boards and then forgets one key detail... when to get off. While the bench is yelling change and the legs are slowly turning into cement, this beauty is still out there battling for the puck like it’s Game 7 of the Stanley Cup.

Last year's winner: Doug Bradshaw

Last year's honorable mention:
Marc Swirsky
