We have been truly overwhelmed by the number of nominations received and are delighted by the response from across the region. It has been fantastic to see so many individuals recognised for their hard work, dedication and commitment to our sport. From volunteers, coaches and officials to club administrators and workforce teams, the nominations highlight the incredible people who work tirelessly behind the scenes to ensure aquatics can thrive across the North West, both at club and competition level.

The success achieved by our clubs, athletes and volunteers over the past year has been exceptional, and the quality and volume of nominations received reflects the strength, passion and commitment of our aquatics community.

Nominations are now officially closed and all submissions have been forwarded to the 2026 Awards Selection Panel for review.

Once the shortlists have been finalised, invitations will be sent to finalists for our Regional Awards Night, taking place on:

Saturday 3rd October 2026

Leigh Sports Village

Additional tickets will be available soon, so keep an eye on our channels for further updates.

Last year’s event was a tremendous success, and we are looking forward to making this year’s celebration even bigger and better as we come together to recognise the outstanding achievements of individuals, clubs and volunteers from across the North West.

Thank you once again for helping us celebrate the people who make aquatics in the North West so special.
