We're excited to continue our second year of partnership with [PGC Basketball](https://pgcbasketball.com/) to provide Pennsylvania Basketball Coaches and Players with two very special awards and opportunities to advance their training!

**Ron Galbreath PABCA / PGC Transformational Coach Award -** This award will be presented to a Pennsylvania Basketball Coaches Association (PABCA) boys and girls coach who had a transformational effect on the lives of their players and fellow coaches, and have had a significant positive impact at their school or within their community.

**PABCA / PGC Heart of a Champion Award -** This award is presented to a PABCA male and female basketball player who have overcome significant personal challenges or adversities in their lives or careers with courage, determination, and an unrelenting spirit. Special consideration will be given to candidates who positively lead and influence their team.

Each award winner is given a full scholarship to attend a [2021 PGC summer basketball camp](https://pgcbasketball.com/schedule-locations/) of their choice to enhance how they think the game and develop next-level skills. Here are last year’s winners.
