The 21st Annual Coach Wooden Citizenship Cup

Nomination deadline is midnight, December 1, 2024

John Wooden, who won ten national championships during the years 1964-1975 as basketball coach at UCLA, is commonly regarded as the greatest college coach of any sport who ever lived. 

Universally regarded as one of the finest human beings to ever grace the world of sports, his character, conduct, and selfless gifts stand at the highest level by any standard.

In his honor, the Coach Wooden Citizenship Cup is presented to six distinguished athletes:  one male and one female professional or Olympic, one male and one female collegiate athlete, and a male and female from the American high schools, for their character and leadership both on and off the field.

The Wooden Cup is open to all college athletes, in all sports, in all divisions, and is regarded as one of the most prestigious awards in college athletics.

Each college or university may nominate one male and one female. The University Athletic Department is the only entity that can submit a male/female Nomination Form – it cannot be submitted by a parent or coach. Thus, discuss with your AD and have your student-athlete submitted for this prestigious award.
