The awards for 2009 will be announced at a function in January 2010. There will be 11 different awards in total. The awards will seek to provide recognition of all the different areas in which people volunteer including, coaching, management, administration and officiating. In addition, awards will recognise young/junior volunteers and also volunteering in disability sport. A lifetime award will go to someone who has given in excess of 25 years voluntary service to Irish sport.
