Smyrna-Clayton: Past Award Winners

Stevie Turner Memorial Award

The Major League, Stevie Turner Memorial Award, was established to recognize those characteristics that were evident in Stevie as he played the game of baseball.  It was important to Steven's family that his award not be presented based on athletic accomplishment but rather to recognize outstanding effort, teamwork, attitude and triumph in overcoming life's obstacles.

Thomas L. Emerson Memorial Award

The Smyrna/Clayton Little League recognizes the contributions made by the late Thomas L.
