Athletic standouts ranging from thirteen-year-old phenoms to Olympic medallists will be honoured at tonight’s Ottawa Sports Awards as the best representatives of their sport in Ottawa for 2018. The 64 Individual Sport Award winners will come together tonight at Algonquin College, alongside members of championship teams and major award winners, to celebrate amateur sport at the sold out event, which begins at 6 p.m.
Biographies of each Individual Sport Award winner are now available.
The Lifetime Award Winners (Nadine Crowley, Peter Lawrence, Kathleen Murphy, and Mike Rivet), Annual Major Award Winners (Isabelle Weidemann, Mike Woods, Steve Johnson, Cassandra Smith, Top Flight Academy, and Carleton Women’s Basketball), Spirit of Sport winner Sindy Hooper, and Special Recognition award winners Harriet Cherry and the 80-plus Hockey Hall of Fame will also be celebrated tonight.
Please note that where appropriate the neighbourhood, high school or club affiliation of each award winner have been noted in their bio. The Ottawa Sports Awards committee does not have a compiled list of where each athlete hails from within Ottawa (ie Orleans/Kanata/Barrhaven, etc.)
