The Queensland Touch Football night of nights is looming, and it’s officially time to submit your nominations for the 2024 Queensland Touch Football Awards!
The awards night has historically acknowledged the wide range of contributions that people have made to the game of touch football in Queensland.
The 2023 recipient of Volunteer of the Year award Dave Field said, “Receiving recognition amongst a passionate Touch Football cohort is a wonderful experience. The QTF Awards Night is a great celebration of everything that is fantastic about our sport”.
Field went on to say, “I am sure the 2024 event will be just as rewarding.”
This sentiment was further echoed by Therese Gordon, the 2023 winner of the Administrative of the year who said, “The QTF Awards is a fantastic event that brings together everyone across the state who is associated with touch football. It is an honor being recognized amongst your peers”.
This year the awards night will be held on Monday 2 December at RACV Royal Pines Resort on the Gold Coast. With proceedings kicking off from 6:00 PM.
