Cornwall Sports Partnership - Sports Awards

Press Release

19th August 2011

2011 cornwall sports awards – further chance to nominate!

The closing date for nominations to the 2011 Cornwall Sports Awards has now been extended to Wednesday September 7. 

The prestigious county event will be staged at the Atlantic Hotel in Newquay on Friday November 11. Now in its sixth year, the event has been designed by the Cornwall Sports Partnership to recognise and honour the contributions made by dedicated sports coaches, officials, clubs, organisations, volunteers and young leaders from across the county. 

The event has grown every year since it started in 2006 and is now a key date in the Cornish sports calendar. This year’s ceremony has been designed to build on the success of last year’s event and the Sports Partnership has already received a good number of high quality nominations.

Organiser Natasha Howard explains: “Although we’ve already received a fantastic amount of nominations for the Awards, there are still a number of sports that haven’t yet received the recognition we’d expected. That’s why we thought we’d give people a little more time to get their nominations in!”

Nomination forms are available from www.cornwallsportspartnership.co.uk or by contacting Natasha Howard on nhoward@cornwall.gov.uk or 01872 323347. 

Make sure you don’t miss the chance to recognise all the hard work put in by your sports volunteers!

Charity Competition at St Minver

On Saturday 6^th August 2011 a charity Short Mat Bowls Competition was hosted by St. Minver SMBC in memory of Tony Watson who passed away August last year.

The event was held to raise money for Macmillan Cancer Support who helped Tony through the last few months of his life. There was a great turn out of teams, with some bowlers travelling from as far at St. Agnes to take part.

Teams played in a round robin competition with four teams progressing to the semi finals. Home team St Minver lead the qualifiers with 6 points and 26 shots closely followed by Landrake with 6 points and 21 shots. Joining them were Camelford with 5 points and 16 shots and Withiel with 4 points and 8 shots.

The first semi was keenly contested with the final result decided by the last bowl delivered by Withiel’s Ken Horrell to clinch the win over Camelford and a place in the final. Landrake claimed the second semi by 5 shots from St. Minver.

The final was a much closer contest than the final score shows with Landrake, skipped by Neil Gribble, winning by 12 shots to Withiel’s 4.

The day was a great success which again demonstrated the ability of Cornwall’s short mat bowlers to support such a worthy cause with a final total of £600 raised for Macmillan Cancer Support.

The Watson family would like to thank everyone for their participation and making the day such a success and also Ring O’Bells (St. Columb), Sharps Brewery, Julian Foye, WTW Cinemas, Crealy, Sainsburys, Tesco, and Macmullan Solicitors for their kind donations.
