Celebration of Sport 2026
Celebrating the people who make sport happen in Jersey.
Wednesday 2 December 2026 at the Freedom Centre
Celebration of Sport brings Jersey’s sporting community together to recognise the achievements, dedication and contributions of the people who make sport such an important part of island life.
Celebrating sport and the people behind it
Sport in Jersey is about more than what happens on the pitch, court, track or in the water. It’s about the people who make it happen, the opportunities it creates and the difference it makes to our community.
Celebration of Sport is an opportunity to recognise the athletes pushing themselves to achieve their goals, the coaches and officials supporting them, the volunteers giving their time, and the clubs and organisations helping people take part.
It’s a chance to come together, celebrate achievements across the island and recognise the people who help sport in Jersey thrive.
