Why are we doing this and how can you participate?
The BBC is partnering with Sport Positive Summit to celebrate individuals and organisations from across the globe who are actively contributing to a more sustainable future, through their environmentally conscious sporting profile and practises.
On 4 October 2022, the BBC Green Sport Awards 2022 programme will grant five (5) awards to sports professionals and organisations who have made a positive ecological impact.
There are two (2) awards open to the public to vote for organisations they believe should be considered for nomination:
- The Ambition and Impact Award, for any elite, professional or high-performance sporting body involved in the organisation of or participation in competitive sport who have made significant Net Zero targets and/or emission reduction targets.
- The Teamwork Award for any sporting organisation (professional, community-level or grassroots) responsible for the governance, organisation of, or participation in, sporting events where they have actively educated or engaged participants, fans, citizens or society at large on climate action; or not-for-profit organisations that collaborate with sporting organisations to deliver engagement or education on climate action.
Organisations may nominate themselves but must adhere to the criteria found in the Award Rules.
