Thanks to everyone who voted, and to those who were nominated.

The Scottish Ethnic Minority Sports Awards are designed to recognise and celebrate the contributions made by Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic (BAME) communities within the sporting arena. The awards will act as a stimulus to create much needed awareness of the many BAME individuals and organisations that continue to affect change to ensure sport captivates the lives of some of our least active communities. In doing so seek to reduce inequality and promote a more healthier and active nation.

The contributions made by Black, Asian and minority ethnic communities remain invaluable to the economic, social and cultural development of Scotland. This awards ceremony is designed to recognise and celebrate these significant contributions. The event will provide a platform to showcase, highlight and reward organisations and individuals who have made an outstanding contribution in their respective sports, from dynamic young stars to well – established veterans.

This is your opportunity to nominate and reward the contribution evidenced in various categories (please see form). Nominations close on Sunday 22nd May, 17.00hrs.
