The Australian Sports Commission (ASC) is calling for entries for the Media Awards with two new categories available for nomination in 2022.

The Media Awards recognise excellence in Australian sports journalism, broadcasting, production and photography.

Now in its 21st year, the awards acknowledge the important role media play in telling sport's stories and inspiring Australians to get active.

There are 12 categories available to enter with new awards added this year that recognise sporting clubs and organisations, and podcasts.

The Media Awards will again honour?a new Lifetime Achievement recipient - last year awarded to legendary AFL journalist Mike Sheahan.

Finalists in the Media Awards will be announced in December and invited to a gala dinner in

Melbourne on Thursday 16 February 2023.

All entries for this year's awards must have been published during the qualifying period, from 12 October 2021 to 31 October 2022.
