Sports Personality of the Year: Greatest Sporting Moment of the year - terms and conditions

  • Published

This award goes to the sporting moment that most captured the UK public's imagination during 2019.

The Panel will put forward a shortlist of sporting moments for this award.

The public will decide the winner from the shortlist prior to the main show with an online vote. This will be overseen by an independent adjudicator.

In the event of a tie in the online vote amongst the two moments obtaining the highest number of votes, the award will be shared amongst those two.

The winner may be announced via a press release and on the BBC Sport website in advance of the live programme on Sunday 15th December 2019.

The Panel will undertake a back-up vote for the Greatest Sporting Moment of the Year award in the unlikely event of problems with the public vote.

The vote will open from 29th November 2019 at 09.00 and close on 6th December 2019 at 09.00.
