Celebrating Excellence

About the Awards

Every year, Off The Field proudly honors outstanding women through two distinguished awards presented at the Annual Super Bowl Fashion Show:

Woman of Impact Award

The Woman of Impact Award recognizes a woman who has shown continued dedication to causes that uplift her community through service, philanthropy, or leadership. Honorees are often trailblazers in private industry, civil service, or nonprofit work, and are selected from the Super Bowl host city.

Danielle Beverly Courage Award

This award pays tribute to Danielle Beverly, an Off The Field member who courageously battled breast cancer three times. It is awarded to a fellow OTF member who demonstrates resilience, bravery, and unwavering commitment to personal and communal growth in the face of adversity.

Ericka Lassiter Service Award

This award pays tribute to Ericka Lassiter, an Off The Field member who has made significant contributions to her community through service and advocacy. It is awarded to a fellow OTF member who exemplifies the spirit of service and dedication to uplifting others.

Ericka Lassiter Service Award

“Women are out there making things happen and spearheading movements. For some reason, it is innate with most women to deflect accolades and praise with overt modesty. ‘Oh, no – it was nothing!’ NO! It was IMPACTFUL. It was MEANINGFUL. It was GAME-CHANGING. And no one else did it – YOU DID IT.”

– Valarie Everett, OTF Former Board Member
