The 12th year of the Leeds Sports Awards grew to its biggest and most impressive incarnation of the event to date! Smashing records for both nominations and attendees, the incredible support from the local and sporting communities demonstrate what a beacon of sporting achievement Leeds has become, and how the Awards embody this. The Leeds Sports Awards will enter 2016 on a high, looking forward to celebrating the next year’s sporting talent!

For the 13th year in a row, the Leeds Sports Awards proved itself as the most impressive celebration of sport within our city. With world class athletes and future Olympic stars, the event recognised individuals at all levels of sport, and looked ahead to what proved to be an incredible year of sporting achievement for Leeds.

After a spectacular year of sport in 2016, the Leeds Sports Awards took place on 7th March 2017 at the first direct arena, bigger and better than before! Sporting stars from grass roots levels to Olympic and Paralympic champions were recognised, alongside the coaches and volunteers who support them.

As well as these incredible sporting heroes, the event saw VIP guests, city councillors, sporting partners and sponsors from across the city come together with a host of individuals involved in sport at every level, to truly celebrate our city’s sporting achievements.
