Nominate now for Awards

Organisers of the Sport Industry Awards have confirmed plans for the 2004 event, with a number of new categories up for grabs.

The gala dinner and awards ceremony for the UK-based event will take place at the London Hilton on Park Lane on May 4.

The ceremony rewards those involved in the industry and includes three new awards for 2004; best use of new media in sport, best use of PR in a sport campaign, and best promotion of a sport by a governing body.

The remaining categories continue to cover publishing, advertising, kit design, sponsorship, community programmes and brand success within the sport industry.

Said Mike Reynolds, Sport Industry Awards judge and director of the Institute of Sport Sponsorship and SportsMatch: “Marketing through sport is a growing business and one in which professionalism and creativity combine to produce best practice. The Sports Industry Awards celebrate the very best examples and have rightly become a highlight of the sporting calendar."
