William Wohlgamuth

The most sought after award in the Department of Kinesiology is the William Wohlgamuth Memorial Fellowship for the Study of Youth in Sports, which was established and is funded annually by Douglas and Carol Rearick of Brighton, Michigan.

Doug Rearick and Bill Wohlgamuth were roommates at Michigan State University between l968 and l972, and both were coaching minors who worked with Dr. Vern Seefeldt. Dr. Wohlgamuth's bachelor's and master's degrees were from MSU. He received a doctorate from Louisiana State University in the area of business communication.

Bill Wohlgamuth died from cancer of the esophagus in l986, and the Rearicks decided to initiate the fellowship for the purpose of supporting a master's or doctoral student interested in the study of youth sports. The fellowship criteria call for the recipient to work with the Youth Sports Institute staff in conducting coaches' education workshops and on research projects related to youth sports.
