Contribution to Athletics and Running 2024

Contribution to Athletics and Running graphic

This category is in place to celebrate specific activity that is taking place in a club or group setting and/or to highlight opportunities provided by an Affiliated Club, Voluntary Event Provider, RunTogether Group, or an associated partner (for example County Association or Regional Council). You can highlight individuals as well. This is a great outlet to highlight the impact a Run Leader has had for example.  

This category can celebrate youth set ups, seniors, masters, inclusion and events/initiatives. Great nominations may explore steps taken to increase participation, provide quality experiences, support specific disciplines and understand what people/clubs/groups/events are doing to provide athletics and running opportunities. 


Listen to what our Club Support Manager Richard Ayling says about the category and how to nominate.

Would you rather speak than type?

If writing isn't your strength, this year you can also use speech-to-text that converts your spoken words into words on the form.

Install the free Voice In speech-to-text extension on Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge. This will add a microphone icon on your toolbar and you just click into the relevant part of the form to fill in, click the microphone, and speak your answer. It will automatically type in.

Do you want to enhance your nomination?

You can send 75 seconds of video to accompany the nomination form to awards@englandathletics.org. Make sure the file is named for the award and person, and filmed in landscape.
