TAFi Awards 2025
taking place

in November 2025
at The Ivy, London, UK

The nominations are now live. We look forward to celebrating with everyone involved in November.

Celebrating and promoting diversity and inclusion in track and field

Brought to life by the founders, Joel Campbell and Michael Facey, as a way to pay homage to the many different people that contribute to the Track and Field landscape, TAFi will shine a light on those whose love for the sport ultimately sustains it.

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.
