Wellington Sports Person of the Year 2020

The Wellington Sportsperson of the Year Awards 2020 has been cancelled by its organisers, Sport Wellington, due to the unprecedented impact COVID-19 has had. Sports organisations play a key role with supporting the nomination process for each of the 14 categories, but with the challenges and uncertainties they are currently facing, it has been deemed inappropriate for the awards to go ahead this year.  

Sport Wellington understands the importance of the Wellington Sportsperson of the Year Awards in celebrating the contribution that sport, and everyone involved with it, makes to the wider Wellington community and are committed to ensuring achievements between April 2019 – April 2020 are not missed. The nomination period for the 2020 awards will be integrated into next year’s event, scheduled to take place in June 2021.
