Public to Choose South Africa's Best TV Sport Commercial for First Time
For the first time in the history of the Virgin Active Sport Industry Awards the public is set to decide the winner of this year’s coveted Best TV Sport Commercial, sponsored by Sports Illustrated, with voting now open ahead of the Virgin Active Sport Industry Awards 2013 on 7th February 2013.
The public will play a vital role in the allocation of one of South African sport’s most prestigious prizes, selecting the winner through an online poll hosted exclusively on SportsIllustrated.co.za. The winner will be crowned at the star-studded Virgin Active Sport Industry Awards ceremony at the magnificent Emperors Palace.
Last year saw the Best TV Sport Commercial Award presented to Absa for their Springbok ‘Team of Millions’ advert, with Heyneke Meyer and John Mitchell handing over the prize on the night. In 2013 the Award promises to be just as exciting and fiercely contested, with the likes of Absa, Nedbank, SARU, SuperSport and Vodacom in the mix.
Sports Illustrated South Africa is the Official Media Partner of the Virgin Active Sport Industry Awards 2013, to be staged at Emperors Palace in Johannesburg on 7th February, once again bringing together the outstanding performers in marketing, PR, sponsorship, community investment and mass participation sports as well as a host of top celebrities to recognise the industry’s greatest achievements.
