See you next Tanya Arnold The 2017 Bradford Sports Awards once again provided a fantastic showcase of sport in Bradford at all levels - it recognised the wealth of dedication and passion of our local volunteers, coaches, community clubs and schools as well as celebrating the talent and achievements of our top athletes and teams. It is a celebration of sport but also highlights the role that sport and physical activity can have in building communities and changing lives for the better.
