Each year, to recognise the excellent achievements of Hamilton's Sportsmen & Sports Women (of all ages), Hamilton Sports Council hosts a Gala Sports Performers Awards Evening. This year's winners are shown below.

Such evenings would not be possible without the support of South Lanarkshire Leisure & sponsorship of local businesses.
This year, for the first time in many years we had no sponsors but have been indebted to the following local companies for their support for the past few years - 

  • Land Engineering (Scotland) Ltd. 
  • Covenburn Contracts
  • Elite Recruitment
Should you like to help in 2009 please contact us through the website or call Marion on 01698-476108

In early December each year, nominations are invited for the various awards categories and, once received, a panel of judges meets to assess the nominations and decide on the top three nominations in each category.

The categories are:

  • Junior Male
  • Junior Female
  • Senior male
  • Senior Female
  • Junior Team of the Year
  • Senior Team of the Year
  • Club of the year
  • Coach of the year 

The 2007 Awards evening was held on the 20th March 2008 in the Banqueting Suite in Almada Street.
Following dinner, those in attendance watched video clips of a number of the sports people wnominated as a result of their achievements during the 2007 calendar year with Awards presented to the top 3 sports people in each category.

Too often the people behind the scenes go un-recognised as without their tireless work, many clubs simply wouldn't function.The Rosebowl Award recognises these behind-the-scenes efforts
