The deadline for entries to the Beyond Sport Awards 2009 has been extended to midnight on Monday 9 March, due to overwhelming demand.
Beyond Sport is a global initiative which seeks to celebrate and support the best projects that use sport to drive positive social change.
There are 11 Award categories covering the sporting spectrum of corporate and social responsibility, change and philanthropy. A shortlist of entries will go before the Beyond Sport Judging Panel of Ambassadors, chaired by Tony Blair, who will choose the winner of each category.
All winners will be announced at the inaugural Beyond Sport Summit to be held in London on 7-9 July 2009. The winners in eight categories will receive funding and long-term support to help them to become fully sustainable.
Both groups and individuals can log on to www.beyondsport.org to process their entry.
