at The Ivy, London, UK
While it wouldn’t be what it is without the superstar athletes, TAFi will also celebrate and award the multitude of people that enable Track and Field to be the internationally recognised sport that it is.
From the coaches, to the officials, physios, governing bodies, scouts, agents, specialist media and administrators, every stake holder will be considered for an award to highlight that Track and Field is the most inclusive sport in the world.
There are currently no Track and Field awards that celebrate the power of its inclusivity. TAFi will do so with a contemporary flourish.
THE IVY Collection has been revealed as the official Host Partner for the inaugural Track and Field Inclusion (TAFi) Awards, set to take place in
London’s West End in November.
