Altman Award

The Altman Award

Created to honor Mr. Dick Altman and his service to the soccer program at Pequea Valley, this award goes to someone who has made a difference and a positive impact on the program like Mr. Altman. For over sixty years, Mr. Altman has been a staple on the sidelines. As recently as 2014, he watched over forty matches, from junior high to high school varsity for both programs. A difference maker at PV, he exudes class, is always encouraging, and sees the good in everyone. With this award, the program wants to recognize individuals who have positively contributed to benefiting our players and our program as Mr. Altman has done.
