The votes are in and the wait is finally over!
Fylde Council’s Sports Development Team has announced the finalists of this year’s Fylde Active Community Awards.
Recognising the people, clubs and organisations that go above and beyond in sports and activity in the community, the 2024 awards received over 200 nominations from across the borough.
Now local businesses can also get involved in the celebrations by becoming either the headline or a category sponsor at this year’s glittering event in the Woodlands Suite at Ribby Hall, Wrea Green.
Ian Brookes, Sports Development Officer at Fylde Council, said: “Our local community never fails to disappoint and we are delighted to have received more than 200 entries to this year’s Fylde Active Community Awards.
“The last event, in 2023 was our biggest and best yet and we’re pulling out all the stops in 2024.
“We urge all our finalists including supporters, members, friends and family to get their tickets for our fabulous awards ceremony on Saturday September 21st.
“We’re also on the lookout for local businesses that want to raise their profile as an organisation that fully supports sport and activity in Fylde by becoming either our headline or category sponsors.
The awards ceremony will take place at Ribby Hall Village on Saturday 21st September with a glittering ceremony.
The winners of the Fylde Active Community Awards 2024 will represent the district at the Lancashire Sports Awards.
