Club of the Year 2025

The Club of the Year award is here to celebrate outstanding affiliated clubs, with a focus on clubs that have strived to improve over the last 12 months. For example, showcasing strong club governance, demonstrating what they are doing to improve member experience and ensuring the club is inclusive in its approach.

The nominations can also explore the role clubs are playing around athlete development, creating a first-class training environment, and how the club are going above and beyond to provide a great member experience. You may also want to consider highlighting good practices around sustainability. Through this category we want to celebrate clubs’ major achievements over the last year.

If your club is doing great work in the community, why not submit a nomination in the Community Project of the Year Award?
