The finalists for the 25th City of Rockingham Sports Star Awards have been announced.
Nominations were received across six categories for the Sports Star Awards, with volunteers, athletes and clubs from a wide range of sporting codes represented in the final shortlist.
City of Rockingham Mayor Deb Hamblin said the Sports Star Awards provided an opportunity for the community to recognise residents who were excelling in their respective sports.
“Since 1996 the City’s Sports Star Awards have acknowledged and celebrated the achievements of local sportspeople and volunteers in our community,” Mayor Hamblin said.
“The awards have paid tribute to local, state, national and international calibre champions from across the City who have gone on to achieve major success. Those who have been selected as finalists should be immensely proud of themselves and their clubs."
The winners will be announced at an awards ceremony on Wednesday, September 21 at the Gary Holland Community Centre.
