Less than a week remains to nominate candidates for the Sportswomen of Colorado’s annual awards, which honor female athletes and individuals who have contributed to girls and women’s athletics in the state.
The organization is accepting nominations until Dec. 21 for athletes, teams, coaches and mentors “demonstrating exceptional courage, leadership or inspiration.” Winners will be honored at a banquet March 7.
Previous winners of the sportswoman of the year award include Dorothy Hamill, Connie Carpenter Phinney, Amy Van Dyken, Jill McGill and Ceal Barry. Proceeds from the banquet help promote girls athletics throughout Colorado.
