The awards program for KCFC includes a number of components: Sportsmanship, Hall of Fame and Persons of the Year. They are recognized during the club's annual meeting/awards banquet in late November.
The Sportsmanship Award is presented to the team or individual that best exemplifies the importance of sportsmanship. Past recipients of the Sportsmanship Award can be found through the link below.
Induction into the Hall of Fame requires 10 or more years of service to the Club through coaching, service on the Board of Directors and/or various committees, and playing an active role in the organization year after year.

KCFC recognizes Persons of the Year in football and cheerleading for their on-going efforts to help the club and its participants succeed. At the 2011 annual meeting and banquet, the Football Person of the Year Award was renamed the Mark Lambeth Football Person of the Year to recognize the outgoing chairman for his dedication to FCCJC and service as a coach, area director, board member and club chairman. In 2012, the inaugural Svajda Superior Sportsmanship Award was presented to Wendy Svajda, for whom the award is now named after, for her 20 years of service to FCCJC.
