Truro and Penwith College have once again agreed to sponsored the Cornwall Sports Awards.

Tempus Leisure also return as sponsors, and both will be joined by A Game Sports, a local sports clothing and equipment company.

The event has been designed to recognise and reward the contributions made by dedicated sports coaches, officials, clubs, volunteers and young leaders from across the county.

Without the investment from sponsors it would not be possible to recognise more than 100 volunteers each year.

The awards are separated into four categories and incorporate 15 separate awards, including club of the year, children’s coach of the year and lifetime services to sport.

It is not too late to nominate, as the deadline has been extended to September 8, so any reader who knows an invaluable volunteer, coach, official or club member who goes above and beyond for their club can show their appreciation by nominating them in the 2014 Cornwall Sports Awards.

Nominations can be made online at www.cornwallsportspartnership.co.uk while a printable version is also available. Alternatively contact Natasha Howard on nhoward@cornwall.gov.uk or 01872 323347.
