BMMC South West Award Nominations now open
As we draw towards the end of the season, it’s time to start reflecting on the events we have done, and the people we have worked with throughout the season.
Within the BMMC South West Region, we like to recognise those people who have made a special mark on the year, and as such, we have three trophies that are awarded. Normally, the recipients are decided at our AGM, but this year, we thought we would try something different and ask you for nominations.
We have three awards available, and what follows is a short description of each.
Our first trophy is the Bellini Trophy for outstanding services to marshalling. This trophy was awarded to Paul Wiltshire last year for his sterling work in holding several committee positions.
Our second award is for the New Marshal of the Year which is open to people who have been marshalling just two years and who have showed a dedication or enthusiasm and demonstrated a keen interest in learning and ability whilst on post.
Our final award is for Cadet Marshal of the Year. This award is open to any young marshals below the age of 18 who again are showing a keen interest in the sport.
This is where we need your help – we want you to nominate people who you think are deserving of consideration for the awards. Anyone you nominate must be a BMMC South West Member (don’t worry if you are not sure, we can check when you send their name in).
Send your nominations, along with a few words of which award you are nominating for and why you believe your nomination should be chosen to me at
sw.media@marshals.co.ukNominations need to be received by midnight on 15th October – that’s gives you two weeks to have a think and put your nominations forward.
Award winners will be announced at our AGM on 29th October – the time and venue of that event will be sent out shortly.
Good luck and get nominating,
David Patrick
