Netball has been nominated in two categories for the 2022 NSW Sports Awards, which take place later this month.
The Awards are NSW’s highest sports honours and the 12 category winners will be revealed at the prestigious NSW Champions of Sport Ceremony at the International Convention and Exhibition Centre in Darling Harbour on Monday 28 November.
Netball NSW has a rich legacy at the Awards with the likes of Anne Sargeant OAM, Liz Ellis AM and Catherine Cox AM proudly part of the NSW Champions of Sport, while the NSW Swifts have won the NSW Team of the Year Award on a number of occasions, including last year.
In 2022 Netball NSW's HART Senior State Titles have been nominated for Event of the Year, while umpire Browen Adams is up for the Official of the Year Award.
The Awards ceremony will also unveil Brad Dalton (Basketball), Craig Johnston (Football), Phil Kearns AM (Rugby Union), Joanne ‘Joey’ Peters (Football), Prashanth Sellathurai (Gymnastics) and Liesl Tesch AM (Wheelchair Basketball & Para Sailing) as the newest inductees into the NSW Hall of Champions.
Sport NSW Chairperson, Carolyn Campbell, congratulated all 63 finalists across the 12 Award categories saying they performed outstandingly and made an immense contribution to their sport.
“These worthy finalists have excelled at the highest levels, and we congratulate them on their magnificent achievements over the past 12 months. This year’s finalists in each category demonstrated the tremendous depth of talent in NSW sport,” Campbell said.
“Sport in NSW is blessed to produce so many exceptional athletes, coaches, administrators, and officials. This is a credit to their brilliant individual efforts, but also to the teams of dedicated and unselfish support staff, family, and friends who, behind the scenes, made such an immense contribution.
“These category finalists join a magnificent assembly of previous athletes, coaches, administrators, officials, and organisations who have been considered as finalists in the most prestigious sports Awards NSW offers."
