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 2023 awards received over 100 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.
Ian Brookes, Sports Development Officer at Fylde Council, said: “Our local community never disappoints us and we are delighted to have received more than 100 entries to this year’s Fylde Active Community Awards.
“The last event, which took place in 2022 after a two-year break due to the pandemic, was our biggest and best yet and we’re pulling out all the stops in 2023.
“We urge all our finalists including supporters, members, friends and family to get their tickets for our fabulous awards ceremony on September 30th.
“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 30th September with BBC Radio Lancashire’s John Gilmore as compere.
The winners of the Fylde Community Active Awards 2023 will represent the district at the Lancashire Sports Awards.
Tickets to the awards ceremony, plus sponsorship package prices, are available from Ian Brookes by emailing ian.brookes@fylde.gov.uk
