Cooke Howlison Toyota Otago Sports Awards 2026

The Cooke Howlison Toyota Otago Sports Awards is the region's premier night of sporting celebration. 

This year's awards ceremony will be held on June 12 at the Edgar Centre, to recognise the outstanding achievements and contributions of Otago's athletes, teams, coaches, officials, volunteers, administrators and innovators. 

Now in its 37th year, the Cooke Howlison Toyota Otago Sports Awards, organised by Sport Otago, celebrate sporting excellence while reflecting our purpose of empowering Otago whānau to be active every day and our vision of making Otago the world’s most active region, by recognising the people and organisations who help sport and active recreation thrive across our communities. 

The event is made possible through the generous support of naming-rights sponsor Cooke Howlison Toyota and other Otago businesses, whose commitment to celebrating local sporting achievement ensures the awards remain a highlight of the region's annual calendar. 

Tickets to the awards night are available now – contact Sport Otago Events Lead Sophie Russell at srussell@sportotago.co.nz to secure yours!
