A look into the past
The election of the athlete of the year has been held in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania since 2013 and has become an integral part of the sporting calendar year. Initially there were no special categories for para-athletes, these were only introduced in 2018. A special highlight in the history of this honor are the multiple title holders: rower Hannes Ocik and the Schweriner SC volleyball women each achieved five titles and are considered the most successful athletes in this category. In order to recognize the diversity of sporting achievements, three sports clubs are honored with the award every year.
The “Sport instead of Violence” initiative, which was launched in 2019, honored four clubs that are particularly committed to this area. What an impressive commitment and a sign that sport can be more than just competition!
