Special Recognition Award
All nominations validly submitted to the WRU must clearly demonstrate why you believe that your nominee(s) should be recognised as part of the WRU Community Volunteer of the Year Awards. When submitting a nomination, you should take into account the criteria provided for each category and demonstrate where you feel that your nominee(s) meets the key criteria by providing clear examples as part of any nomination that you may submit.
No nominee should have received payment (other than expenses) for their work. The intention of these awards is to recognise volunteers that give up their time freely and for the love of rugby union and their community.
You may also want to nominate an individual in more than one category if they meet the criteria. Whilst this is possible, please note that you will need to submit a separate nomination form for each category where you wish to submit a nomination.
