LA84 Foundation Awards

The LA84 Foundation continues a long and rich Los Angeles tradition of honoring athletes’ achievements on the field of play. This tradition, dating back to the 1930s, was started by W.R. (Bill) Schroeder and the Helms Athletic Foundation.

For Helms high school award selections dating back to the 1930s, go to the LA84 Foundation search page, scroll down to Helms Annuals, select boxes, enter athlete or high school names (into search box) and then select "search."  

The LA84 Foundation High School Awards Program sponsors the all-star award certificates for boys and girls in the CIF Southern Section and Los Angeles City Section in baseball, basketball, football, softball, soccer and volleyball. The respective coaches associations make the selections. In total, approximately 1,500 athletes are honored each school year.

The LA84 Foundation also sponsored the National Girls and Women in Sports Day (pdf) awards, from 1987 to 2008.
