Nominations are now being called for Sydney’s ‘Strapper of the Year’ award for the 2010-2011 season.

Presented for the first time last year, this award endeavours to recognise the behind-the-scenes efforts by those strappers that tend to go beyond the call of duty.

The award, sponsored by Racing NSW and co-ordinated by Australian Racing Christian Chaplaincy, is presented at NSW Racehorse Owners Association’s prestigious ‘Racing's Night of Champions’ to be held on Thursday 11th August 2011.

The award is peer-nominated with strappers at metropolitan race meetings being invited to nominate who they think is deserving of the award. A selection panel of racing officials and media representatives will subsequently choose the winner from a short-list of six finalists.

Nominations can be submitted online  or by downloading the following form: Sydney Strapper of the Year – Nomination Form

Nominations close Friday, 24th June 2011.
