2011 ASCTA SWIMMING IMAGES AWARDS

Posted in Swimming

ascta (April 20): Swimming is a sport that always attracts some of the world's finest sporting images and throughout 2010-11 it was no different with Australian photographers leading the way in cutting edge ideas and creativity.

Images posted throughout the 2010 Commonwealth Games told the stories of some great triumphs and the images also taken at this year's FINA World Championship Trials also showed the class not only of the athletes but also the men behind the lens.

To acknowledge our talented sports photographers ascta (the Australian Swimming Coaches and Teachers Association) again invites all professional media photographers to enter the 2011 ascta Swimming Images Awards for the period - May 2010 to April 2011.

After the success of last year's awards, the Australian Swimming Coaches and

Teachers Association (ASCTA) in conjunction with the Hanson Media Group are now calling for nominations for photos in the following two categories:

• "Best Swimming Action Photo" and;

• "Best Swimming Related Feature Photo".

Photos must be submitted by May 6, 2011.

Winners will be announced at the ascta CONVENTION 2011 on the Gold Coast on Saturday May 21, during the ascta AWARDS Dinner.

Winners will be notified by phone or email and will be invited to attend the Dinner (airfares and accommodation provided) as well as a separate weekend for two at the five star luxury Sofitel, Gold Coast.

Entries will be judged by ASCTA & Hanson Media Group. All photos must be of ‘Hi- Res' (300dpi min.) and be available to be published in ascta's magazine - "Swimming in Australia" - and reproduced at ascta's discretion (with photographers/organisation credits).

Please submit all entries to:
