Alastair Brownlee headlines Stirling Sports Awards 2012
After what has been undoubtedly the most inspiring and phenomenal sporting year for Scotland and Stirling so far, topped by Andy Murray’s recent US Open win and homecoming to Dunblane recently, Stirling will once more welcome an Olympic Champion when British Triathlete and London 2012 Olympic gold medal winner Alistair Brownlee headlines the annual Stirling Sports Awards this year on Thursday 22nd November at Stirling Castle.
Stirling is set to celebrate what has been an incredible Olympic and Paralympic summer and year of sport with the appearance at the Stirling Sports Awards by the London 2012 Olympic triathlon champion. Alistair’s visit is sure to stir the emotions once more for those attending as he relives the moment he won gold and his Olympic experience.
“I’m absolutely delighted to be invited to attend the Stirling Sports Awards and look forward to
meeting the sporting community in Stirling, in the historic setting of Stirling Castle. The Stirling Sports Awards are a fantastic way to recognise the efforts and achievements of local athletes, coaches, volunteers, teams and clubs from the Stirling community. I know from my own experience how vital a part they all play in any athlete’s future success.”
Sports Awards
The Stirling Sports Awards is held annually, celebrating the significant sporting achievements of our local clubs from the previous calendar year. Though the Awards bring a high profile focus onto the very best of local sport through guest speakers such as Dame Kelly Holmes, Judy Murray and Frank Dick, it is also those at the most grassroots level, or simply those who offer support to a club that benefit too.
