Mizuno celebrating junior athlete success at NSWIS Awards

Mizuno Australia will continue to back the NSW Institute of Sport’s (NSWIS) annual showpiece event, sponsoring the Junior Athlete of the Year category at the 2019 NSWIS Awards.

This award celebrates the outstanding performance of a junior NSWIS athlete based on performances at a benchmark event, performances at other major international events, season’s best or personal best results as well as world rankings.

The Mizuno Junior Athlete of the Year award will be presented at a gala event at the Royal Randwick Racecourse on 14th November, with the best sporting talent from across Australia in attendance. The NSWIS Awards recognise and honour the achievements of NSWIS athletes, coaches and sport programs across nine categories.

National Sales Manager at Mizuno Australia Jason Crawford sees the NSWIS Awards as an extension of the terrific relationship they have with the Institute.

“As a long-time Performance Partner and apparel supplier for NSWIS, supporting the Junior Athlete of the Year award is a great fit for us.

“What’s so special about being part of the NSWIS Awards is seeing how dedicated these young athletes are to their sport.”
