The Gliding Australia Awards and some sporting trophies are presented at the Gliding Australia AGM each year. Only one award is made for each category annually, and if there are no nominations (or none that are judged worthy) then the Award need not be made.

Nominations should be emailed to it_admin@glidingaustralia.org.
