We all know that volunteers are key to the success of our sport – the time and effort they give is invaluable whether it is at their local club/centre, at local or national competitions or on committees . . .

Occasionally there is someone who really stands out, who puts in that extra bit of time and effort and who really makes a difference to the sport. Recognising the time and effort someone gives to our sport is incredibly important and shows them that they are valued and their input appreciated.

Each year, BWSW award a 'Volunteer of the Year' and a 'Young Volunteer of the Year' for their contribution to sport over the last year. Anyone can nominate someone within the sport for these awards and we would love to hear from as many people as possible.
