Sport North Federation COVID Hero Awards Announcement

Sport North understands that in the year 2020-2021 there was not much sport happening in the North or even in Canada. Due to COVID-19 the 2020-2021 year in sport was largely a year of non-competition. With a lack of tournaments in the NWT and on a national level, it is difficult to distribute awards equitably.

Due to the pandemic, Sport North will be postponing its traditional Sport North Awards Program; and in its place will recognize our 2020-21 TSO’s COVID-19 Heroes.   

The Sport North COVID-19 Heroes Awards will be open to all TSO’s.

What are COVID Heroes?

Sport North’s COVID Heroes are the people who persisted during the heaviest part of COVID-19 to restart their sports safely! These Heroes are the athletes who continued to train even though they did not have their support group physically with them. They are teams that pushed through and trained together, even though it was difficult. These Heroes are the coaches who created alternate ways to train when the gyms were closed.

These are the people Sport North wants to celebrate!

So please join us this year by nominating your Athletes, Coaches, and Contributors to Sport!

You can access the COVID Heroes submission form ONLINE!

Due Date: August 27th, 2021.
