Best coverage of sport by a club or organisation

ASC Media Awards

This award recognises the ability of sporting clubs and organisations to engage with members and fans through their own media channels.

A strong emphasis is on unique approaches that engage fans and encourage people to become more actively involved in sport. This can be via website articles, podcasts or video, and the use of social media channels.

Judges will be looking for innovative ways clubs and organisations engage with new audiences and members.

Long-form videos and audio files such as podcasts are eligible in this category.
