Club Volunteer of the Year 2025

This category is about celebrating a club volunteer’s achievements over the last 12 months. We want to celebrate the club volunteers that make our sport happen and highlight the impact they have had on their club, the key achievements from the past 12 months and learn about what makes them an invaluable member of your club.
This award is to recognise a member of an England Athletics affiliated club who has been in a volunteering role for a minimum of 3 years. These roles could include a club committee member, a member of the club steering group and/or a hard-working unsung volunteer at your club. This category is all about rewarding the volunteers who make our sport happen.
Note: if you want to nominate a RunTogether group or leader, you should do so in the Community Project category.
Listen to what our Club Support Manager Richard Ayling says about the category and how to nominate.
