Fylde Community Sports Award shortlist announced- see if your club is involved

The very best coaches, volunteers, clubs and schools from across Fylde have been recognised in the shortlist for the 2026 Fylde Community Sports Awards .

The shortlist spans seven categories, celebrating everyone from dedicated volunteers who give up their weekends to schools inspiring the next generation to get moving.

Hosted by Fylde Council’s Health and Sports Development Team, the awards recognise the people and organisations who make sport welcoming, accessible and fun for residents of all ages and abilities.

The winners will be revealed at a celebration evening at the Inn on the Prom Hotel in St Annes next month. Councillor Chris Dixon, Lead Member for Social Wellbeing, said: “Every week, right across Fylde, coaches, volunteers and clubs give their time to help people get active, build confidence and feel part of something special. These awards are our chance to say thank you.

“It has been inspiring to read about the difference our nominees are making, from young people achieving great things in their sport to groups helping residents look after their health and wellbeing.

“Congratulations to everyone who has made the shortlist. You are all fantastic ambassadors for sport in Fylde.”
