Cardinal Mooney selected as one of 12 schools in the state recognized by FHSAA for exemplary sportsmanship during 2005-06 school year
The State Farm/Fred E. Rozelle Sportsmanship Awards program was implemented during the 1990-91 school year by the Florida High School Athletic Association to honor those schools that exhibited exemplary sportsmanship during the regular season and FHSAA State Series. Each year the award is presented to one school in each classification whose total sports program best exemplifies the qualities of sportsmanship by its coaches, players and spectators. Nomination forms for this award are provided to each member school FHSAA representative and officials' association. Criteria for selection of the winners includes programs and activities implemented within the school and community to promote sportsmanship; number and type of unsportsmanlike ejections; number and type of exceptional sportsmanship reports; and source of the nomination. An anonymous selection committee of representatives from the sports community reviews all nominations and selects the winners. The award is named for FHSAA Commissioner Emeritus Fred E. Rozelle, who served as the Association’s executive secretary and commissioner from 1980-1991. State Farm became the title sponsor for the award in 2005-06.
