Nominations are now being accepted for a number of high-profile sports awards in the city.
The Boston Pizza Estevan and District Male and Female Athlete of the Year Awards pay tribute to an individual athlete who has thrived in the past 12 months.
Nominations for the Athlete of the Year awards should list athletic achievements from the past year, along with some information on any past athletic success. Nominations can also include efforts to help promote the sport.
The Estevan Kinsmen Club Volunteer Coach of the Year Award salutes a coach who has made a difference in the development of players and the growth of a sport.
Submissions for the volunteer coach should chronicle the coach’s passion for the sport, with their history, accomplishments and their dedication to developing athletes.
Questions can be directed to David Willberg at 306-461-5187, or by email at [email protected]. Nominations can be sent to that email address, or dropped off at the Estevan Mercury office. The deadline to submit a nomination is April 10.
Awards will be handed out during a sponsors’ banquet for the 2016 Crescent Point Energy Western Canada Cup. The banquet is on April 27, and will feature Calgary Flames president Brian Burke as the keynote speaker.
