For the first time, sport administrators were recognised as part of the SportWest Awards in 2021 with a specific award dedicated to acknowledge the work they complete to better community sport.

To be eligible, a recipient’s will need to demonstrate they have provided benefit to, or had a positive impact upon, an individual sport or the industry as a whole, and their standards of excellence will have distinguished them from peers.
