How to Nominate

The official online Nomination Forms will be available November 27th, so please mark that in your calendar. The 37th Canadian Sport Awards guidelines are available for review!
 
Eligible entries are for Junior Athlete of the Year, Leadership Awards (3), Corporate Excellence Award and the Spirit of Sport Story of the Year – accomplishments, stories or contributions that took place between January 1, 2009 and December 31, 2009, except for lifetime achievement awards. Any person that meets the current CSA eligibility criteria may be entered for consideration. Please review and comply with the 37th Canadian Sport Awards Guidelines.
 
Nomination for the Athlete Performance Awards (4) will be populated by the TOP 8 results published by Sport Canada and from other relevant sources.  The Selection Advisory Committee will determine, based on those results, the top 3-5 in each category.  Those top 3-5 nominations are then sent to the jury for ranking 1-3.  Therefore no nominations are required.
