Community Sport and Recreation Awards – Entries Open Now

Entries for the 2020 Community Sport and Recreation Awards are now open!

This is a fantastic opportunity to shine a light on the incredible work being achieved at the grassroots level in the sport and recreation sector. The awards are free and simple to enter, and there is a top tips document to help you get started with your entry.

There are five categories in which you can enter, with each winning project picking up a £1,000 prize from HRH The Earl of Wessex at an awards ceremony in March.

The five categories are:

  • The Community Engagement Award sponsored by the Professional Footballers’ Association
  • The Mental Health and Wellbeing Award sponsored by ActiveIQ
  • The Partnerships Award
  • The Volunteering Award sponsored by EduCare
  • The Youth Development Award

Applicants must either be a member of the Sport and Recreation Alliance, be affiliated or work in partnership with a member to be considered for an award.

For more information and to enter, head over to the Sport and Recreation Alliance website and complete the form by Sunday 10 November.
