In 2020, sport showed its resilience, especially at the community level, where the power of sport to influence and connect people has never been more important.

We celebrated the role sport has played in communities across Western Australia and acknowledged those that have been able to achieve at a high level through a challenging year.

The year presented unprecedented challenges to communities across Western Australia, across the country and around the world.

Sport was also impacted by the spread of COVID-19 with sport at various levels impacted by the global pandemic resulting in a number of events being cancelled or postponed, headlined by the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games.

The presentation of Awards took place at RAC Arena on 11 March 2021.
