It’s that time of year. Time to head over to the Women’s Sports Foundation website to vote for Sportswoman of the Year.
Every year, WSF recognizes an individual and team Sportswoman whose performances over a 12-month time span have been exceptional. Criteria is based on new records and world championships won.
Nominees represent a variety of sports including tennis, bowling, swimming, softball, and gymnastics among others. Some are well-known athletes like tennis champ Serena Williams and racecar driver Danica Patrick and some are lesser-known ones like bowler Kelly Kulick – all are deserving.
Last year, gymnast Nastia Liukin won the individual athlete award while softball player Jessica Mendoza took home the team sport athlete title.
So what makes a Sportswoman exceptional? Goals. Upsets. Strength. Determination. Heart?
It’s up to you to decide who should be honored for their outstanding accomplishments and why. Vote now.
Award winners will be announced on October 13, 2009 and honored at the Annual Salute to Women in Sports Awards Dinner at the Waldorf Astoria in New York City.
