In an unique effort to include more sports into the lives of our children, Sports Illustrated Kids, the leading magazine for children who love sports, is offering a contest to nominate a parent as Sports Parent of the Year. This is a special contest that ends on September 24, so act quickly! For more info about nominating a parent, please read the details below:
For the first time ever, Sports Illustrated Kids is naming a “SportsParent of the Year” and would like to invite you to enter or nominate an inspirational SportsParent! Modeled after the famed Sportsman and SportsKid of the Year awards, the SportsParent of the Year title will honor a parent who embodies the essence of sportsmanship.
After all, we wouldn’t have a Sportsman or SportsKid without the role model who initially set the example. A true SportsParent is dedicated to using sports to support family and community, not scores and trophies. The SportsParent will exemplify qualities that SI Kids aims to impart to children through a shared passion for sports, including fun, dedication, healthy living, and the value of community and team.
Here’s how to enter:
1.) Decide who to submit for the award, whether it is yourself, your spouse or another parent
2.) Simply go to www.sikids.com/sportsparent and follow instructions to submit your nomination
3.) Remember there is (1) nomination per person or email account.
4.) “Like” the Sports Illustrated Kids Facebook page
5.) Share your entry with all of your friends and followers via social media (Twitter Hashtag: #SPOTY2012)
And here is the best part. The winner will receive a $1000 VISA gift card to support his/her child’s or community team’s sports needs! The winner may also be featured in an upcoming issue of Sports Illustrated Kids magazine and/or on SIKids.com.
Sports Illustrated Kids is also offering their September tablet issue COMPLETELY FREE just for entering! The tablet edition has everything that the print magazine has, but also includes bonus photos and interactive features like games and sports cards that kids will love!
