This event recognises outstanding achievement or service, amongst sportsmen and women of all ages and celebrates our Isle of Wight success stories.

Nominate worthy candidates
We encourage you to please nominate worthy candidates. Putting forward a nomination is acknowledging in public, the success that a member or team has achieved, or the contribution that a volunteer or officer has made to the progress to a club.

Categories are listed on the form but do please make a nomination if you think it is deserving, even if it doesn’t appear to fit into one of the categories listed.

Please download the candidate nomination form.
