Now, i like darts as every other British person (even though i'm not British ) , but Littler being the athlete of the year, in an Olympic year is a bit of an exaggeration. He isn't even the World Champion for Pete's sake.

Would have been a bit much!  Did get Young Personality though.

 

As predicted Keely Hodgkinson got the Main Award.

 

Her coaching team Trevor Painter with ex-runner Jenny Meadows got the Coach of the Year after coaching three Paris medallists.

 

To make it a treble for the Greater Manchester Number 610 Bus Route, Wigan Rugby League got the Team of the Year after completing that sport's Quadruple.
