African Sports Media Network and Athletics Africa are set to collaborate on a Joint African Sports Awards in late 2013.
 
Jan. 18, 2013 - PRLog -- Two of Africa’s sports media companies; Athletics Africa and African Sports Media Network have decided to join forces to recognize the efforts of Africa’s athletes in a Joint Sports Awards ceremony at the 1st Biennial African Sports Development Conference and Expo to be hosted in Accra Ghana in December of this year (2013).

The two CEO’s of both Companies Mr. Yomi Omogbeja of Athletics Africa and Mr. Leslie Koroma of African Sports Media Network who have both been running two distinct and separate Awards for African athletes came to an agreement that it will be very beneficial to run a joint African Sports Awards Ceremony that will be hosted during the upcoming African Sports Development Conference and Expo in Accra, Ghana this year and will continue to be held annually in Select Cities across Africa making it a constant fixture in the African Sports landscape.

Mr. Yomi Omogbeja of Athletics Africa one of the pioneers of online African Sports Media had initiated and was running the annual ATAF Awards (Athletics Africa Awards) while Mr. Leslie Koroma and his group at African Sports Media Network had been running the sports discipline neutral; African Male and Female Sports Personality of the Year Awards all in an effort to give credence and recognition to the efforts of Africa’s athletes.

Both CEO’s who are integral part of the 1st Biennial African Sports Development conference and Expo saw the need to integrate the Joint Sports Award show into the conference timetable of events since most of Africa’s sports aficionados will be at the conference and therefore in essence make it a perfect sense to launch the first joint award where all of Africa’s sports personalities will be gathered.
