Leeds Sports Awards

Leeds Sport Awards2012 represents a landmark year for sport in the UK in which the nation hosts the world's greatest sporting event and we are presented with a unique opportunity to celebrate the achievements of our local sports men and women.  The 9th annual Leeds Sports Awards will kick start our City's Olympic preparation with a very special celebration of the world beating talent from Leeds.
 
Taking place at the Centenary Pavilion, Elland Road on Thursday 15th March, the 2012 Awards promise to be the largest and most highly anticipated ceremony yet, raising the bar for recognising sporting achievements. This years' event has set a new personal best, not only in the number of nominations received, but also the quality and breadth of sporting achievements.  We are delighted to have an opportunity to showcase our world class sporting talent, as well as the outstanding volunteers, coaches and administrators who make our City so unique in the world of sport. 
 
We are also delighted to announce Leeds City College as title sponsor of The Leeds Sports Awards. Leeds City College plays a key role in encouraging and supporting athletes of all ages to participate in both team and individual sports, helping to shape our city's future sporting stars. It is in recognition of this that this year will also see the introduction of a special award -The Leeds City College Sports Personality of the Year.

We hope that The Leeds Sports Awards will also bring together local businesses and the sporting industry.  The 2012 Games has provided a fantastic opportunity for Yorkshire's industry, with over 220 locally based companies winning Olympic contracts summing to approximately £73m.
