Sportstar, which celebrated its 40th birthday in 2018, has decided to revive its annual awards, which were in being for about a decade from the mid-1990s. Named Sportstar Aces, the awards will celebrate the stars, the future stars and the tireless silent partners who have dedicated their lives to sports, to realise the dream of making India a ‘Sporting Nation’. Sportstar Aces will identify and reward the most deserving athletes irrespective of the popularity of the sport.
There are many untold stories of struggle, fierce dedication and selfless work behind each athlete’s success. Sportstar Aces will strive to tell these stories, thereby providing encouragement to our athletes and their support systems. The awards aim to create a platform where stakeholders involved with Indian sports meet and share their vision for the growth of games as we jointly find ways to make dreams a reality.
