Three of our broadcasters, Joe Molloy, Nathan Murphy and Eoin Sheahan have all been nominated in the Sports Broadcaster category, while Off The Ball has also been nominated for Sports Programme of the year.

Off The Ball has also been nominated twice in the category of Best Sports Story for its coverage of the Gordon Elliott scandal that occurred in March, and for the story 'Giles at 80.'
