SkillsActive sporting role model of year award 2009
Who will be named sports role model of the year 2009?
Role models play an important part in a young person's lives, they can affect their views, actions or attitudes towards a certain sport or lifestyle. This is particular apparent in the world of sport, where stars are constantly in the public eye and their actions are seen and heard by many individuals on a daily basis. It is therefore important for a role model to lead by example and show a positive image to young people. However, there are occasionly stories of bad sporting behaviour or problems in personal lives that lead to some stars becoming poor role models. So, SkillsActive have produced a survey to offer you the chance to tell us what you think makes a good or bad role model, what sports are notorious for producing role models and pick your best and worst role models from the world of sport.
