This award recognises rising stars in sports governance. Those who early in their career are making a significant contribution to governance in their organisation or in the sport and physical activity sector.

These are the people who are proactive in embracing new challenges, who show imagination and energy, and who are resilient in the face of adversity. The ones who help and support colleagues and who are unafraid to learn from their mistakes.
