In 2014, the Men's Coach of the Year award was named in honour of John Gardiner[2] following his death.[3] A former Olympian, Gardiner was involved with basketball for more than 50 years as a player, coach and administrator at all levels of the game. He coached more than 400 games and won five MSBL championships with the Perry Lakes Hawks, including four consecutive between 2001 and 2004.[3]
