Sport Waikato Regional Capability and Events Coordinator Gilly Alexander says she is impressed with the quality of nominees from a wide variety of sports nominated this year.

Thanks to all those who took the time to nominate - the sporting talent in our region is inspiring and I am really looking forward to our awards evening and celebrating our district’s success,” Alexander said.
