Reminder: 3 DAYS LEFT!

The AIPS Sport Media Awards have been receiving works from around the world and there are just three days left to the deadline for submissions.

 

Amazing stories, stunning pictures, profound documentaries and in-depth audio files are coming day after day from every corner of the world, as the race for the AIPS Sport Media Awards enters its last days.

 

Join in the celebration of sports media excellence by submitting your work and participating in the second edition of the first international prize for sport journalism, a unique opportunity to earn recognition for achievements in writing, photography, audio and video.

 

The Awards constitute a truly global festival of sport storytelling, allowing every reporter, photographer and videographer to participate and to be ranked among the world’s best.

 

The AIPS Sport Media Awards give visibility to our profession and prestige to our colleagues, no matter if they are employees or freelancers, if they work for a big media group or for a small newspaper. In times of crisis, it is an essential measure to keep celebrating sport media excellence and the men and women that make it possible.

 

This is a cornerstone initiative of AIPS, the InternationalSport Press Association, as we continue to celebrate those professionals that produce the best and most creative content worldwide.

 

Submission is free and can be made in any language. Each individual can submit up to two works, if they were published/broadcast between 18 September 2018 and 7 October 2019.
