Now in its seventh year, the three finalists in each of the 12 categories will be announced later this month, while the winners will be unveiled on 29th November at a special ceremony at Folly Farm.

Councillor Elwyn Morse, Cabinet Member for Culture, Sport and Leisure, said the Sport Pembrokeshire Award scheme was one of the most popular in Wales attracting large numbers of nominations every year.

“We are delighted to have received yet again so many nominations this year,” he said. “The scheme is a chance for us all to celebrate the high standard of skill and talent in sport in Pembrokeshire”.

He added: “I would like to take the opportunity to thank our main sponsors – Valero, The Western Telegraph, Folly Farm and Radio Pembrokeshire – for their continuing support.”

Ben Field, Manager of Sport Pembrokeshire – the sports development service of Pembrokeshire County Council – said: “These awards are our chance to celebrate sporting success and effort in the County.

“Everyone nominated deserves recognition for their achievements; whether as performer, coach, teacher or organiser.

“All nominees are invited, along with guests, to attend the Awards Special Presentation evening on the 29th November at Folly Farm.”

“If any other member of the County’s sporting fraternity wishes to attend please contact the Sport Pembrokeshire Office on 01437 776191 without delay as places are limited.”
