2023 Northern Territory Sailing Awards - Nominations Open
Nominations are now open for the 2023 Australian Sailing Awards, with the annual awards set to recognise clubs, members, volunteers, and athletes from throughout the Territory for their outstanding achievements and contributions over the past year. Nominations will be open from June 1st to July 31st, with the winners set to be announced online. Local winners will automatically go through to the National Awards.
This year’s Awards will have a new look, with the Club of the Year Award being split into two separate categories relating to the size of the club. This will give smaller clubs the opportunity to be recognised for their work growing the sport in their local community.
There will be a new award as well, with the Team of the Year Award recognising a crew of two or more sailors, from any category of sailing, who performed outstandingly in a sailing event(s) or other activity in the nomination period. The Team of the Year will replace the Offshore Sailor of the Year Award, with Offshore teams now in-line to be recognised as a part of the expanded criteria.
