Sports Development Officer, Martyn Cassell, said: "We've already had a good number of entries to the awards, but we could certainly do with more. We know that there are lots of great stories of sporting achievement and endeavour in Thanet and we want to recognise and celebrate the people behind those stories. It doesn't just have to be traditional sports, it can be any form of physical activity. If you know someone who's a high achiever or who has shown amazing enthusiasm and dedication, then make sure you get your nomination in. All entries will be judged by our panel, so you don't have to get votes for your entry."
The closing date for nominations on Friday 11 September. To get a nomination form, visit www.thanet.gov.uk/sport
The awards ceremony is being held at Margate's Winter Gardens on Wednesday 11 November between 7pm and 9pm and will have local and regional sports representatives.
