Alberta is a global leader in sport, and it’s thanks to all those in the sport community who dedicate themselves to excellence. The Alberta Sport Recognition Awards program was established in 1987 to acknowledge the outstanding achievements and commitment of the sport community in the province.
“This year, we have witnessed our fellow Albertans achieve excellence in sport, and Alberta’s government is proud to celebrate this excellence through the Alberta Sport Recognition Awards. Their remarkable dedication to sport makes our province a better place to live, visit and play.”
Alberta’s government understands the critical role sport and recreation play in Albertans’ lives and is proud to honour the outstanding accomplishments of Alberta athletes and the people who help them succeed. Sport teaches healthy habits and fundamental life skills, such as teamwork, leadership, confidence and commitment.
