Nominations are open in Auckland's Otara community to recognise people for their contribution to sports.
The awards celebrate outstanding athletes, coaches and administrators.
The chair of the Auckland Council's Otara-Papatoetoe Local Board, Lotu Fuli, says it is a community led initiative that took some time to get going.
She told Sara Vui-Talitu that last year's debut awards were such a success, they are already excited about this year's.
