Honda Nominations 2025

Nominations are now closed.  Nominees are recognised at a local level, with our Honda evening on 18th June, before finalists - selected by a national panel - will be invited to a national awards event.

Honda Volunteer of the Year 2025 Categories

Unsung Hero - A volunteer or group of volunteers who have gone above and beyond to create positive experiences.

Game for All - An individual or a group of volunteers who have developed an inspiring offer to make the game more accessible and attract new audiences, or created a flexible and engaging offer to retain current players.

Connecting the Community - An individual or a group of volunteers who have strengthened the club/organisation’s presence within the local community, helping to establish the club/organisation as a central part of community life.

What Happens with the Nominations...

Once we get all nominations in, a committee of Surrey CB members reads through them all, then selects the top 4 or 5 Regional Winners, who are submitted to the RFU/Honda.

The RFU/Honda then whittle that number down to 1 or 2 per county who are the Finalists. They join other finalists from other counties around the county, and are invited - along with a partner - to an overnight stay at the Marriott Hotel in Twickenham, a lunchtime event, a behind-the-scenes tour of the stadium and a black tie dinner. At the dinner Honda announces the overall winner for the year for each category.

All nominees are recognised at a local level with an invitation to a Honda Volunteer Awards Evening.
