DURHAM – U.S. Soccer announced this past week that the board of directors voted to approve two new awards that will be presented each year at the Annual General Meeting dinner. One of the awards is named after Duke women's soccer assistant coach Carla Overbeck – The Carla Overbeck Leadership Award.
The Carla Overbeck Leadership Award will be given to an individual who demonstrates a unique ability to lead and guide others and who contributes to the success of an initiative that benefits those outside their own organization and places emphasis on collaboration within and among leadership.
