The 2012 Laureus World Sports Awards, which recognise sporting achievement, are the premier honours on the international sporting calendar.   The winners are chosen by the Laureus World Sports Academy, the ultimate sports jury, made up of 47 of the greatest sportsmen and sportswomen of all time.  The living legends of sport honouring the great athletes of today.

The 2012 Laureus World Sports Awards have had the support of Prime Minister David Cameron and Mayor of London Boris Johnson.  Mr Cameron said “I am delighted that the Laureus World Sports Awards are in London in 2012.  These Awards celebrate the world’s top sportsmen and women and highlight the incredible power of sport to make a real difference to individuals and communities around the world.  I can’t think of a better way to kick off our Olympic year.”]]>
