The St. Louis Cardinals today announced the launch of the Coaches Who Care contest. The Cardinals created the Coaches Who Care contest to thank and celebrate deserving coaches for the positive impact they have on the lives of those they coach in youth softball and baseball.

“We’re thrilled to partner with Nike on this exciting program where we can recognize the dedication and positive impact that coaches demonstrate across the community,” said Michael Hall, Vice President of Community Relations and Executive Director of Cardinals Care.
