“The quality of Award category submissions this year is again outstanding, and we congratulate all finalists for their wonderful contribution to their sport, and to NSW sport more broadly.

“These performances and achievements continue to raise the bar and set new benchmarks for all sport to aspire to as we turbo-charge along the Green and Gold highway towards the Brisbane 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games,” he said.
