THE 2026 JUDGING PANEL

WHAT ARE THE SPORTSPRO
MEDIA AWARDS?

As technology advances and fan consumption habits evolve, the boundaries between traditional and digital media continue to blur.

Sports content is no longer confined to a single platform or format – it spans live broadcast, social media, direct-to-consumer services, influencer-led content, and cutting-edge innovations in AI, personalisation, and interactivity.

The awards celebrate the pioneers, platforms, and storytellers who are coming together to shape the future of how sports are consumed worldwide.
