Coaches of the Year for each district are determined by a vote of coaches in attendance at the Spring and Fall district meetings. Plaques are awarded to each recipient at the annual State Convention each February. The Board of Directors of the IHSTeCA then selects one State Coach of the Year from the district winners. The State Coach of the Year also receives a plaque at the State Convention in February.
