Meet Our 2024 Award Judges

The finalist and winners of the Lincolnshire Sport & Physical Activity Awards are selected by an independent judging panel made up of experts from various sectors who are involved in some way in the delivery or promotion of sport and physical activity or health and wellbeing. Panel members go through the shortlisted nominations and choose the finalists for each award and ultimately pick the award winners.

We'd like to thank all this year's judges for giving up their time to help us select the deserving winners of the 2024 Awards.
