Sporting Achievement Awards nominations open

The Guernsey Sports Commission is looking forward to hosting the 17^th annual Sporting Achievement Awards in January.

‘Unlike 2020 we have had a reasonably full year of sporting action and so there should be plenty of performances and achievements to celebrate,’ said Graham Chester, the Commission’s Operations Director.

‘We anticipate being able to present all of our awards this year including the main Sports Commission Trophy for outstanding performer of the year, which the Commissioners felt we could not award last year because of the disruption caused by Covid.

‘This is a fantastic opportunity for all sports to put forward their top teams, coaches or individuals for one of the awards and I would encourage all local sporting organisations to get nominating,’ said Graham.

‘We want the evening to be a real celebration of the breadth and depth of sport here in Guernsey and share some of the stories around the top performances of the last 12 months.’

There are 12 different awards and nominations must be received by Monday 6^th December. The criteria for each award are available on the Commission’s website and nominations should be sent in writing to the Guernsey Sports Commission or via email to info@guernseysports.com

Awards night is Thursday 6^th January 2022 in the theatre at Beau Sejour starting at 6.30pm.

Guest speakers and presenters will be announced nearer the time.
