BBC Sports Personality of the Year Award
Encyclopedia
The BBC Sports Personality of the Year Award is the titular award of the BBC Sports Personality of the Year
ceremony, which takes place each December. The winner is the sportsperson, adjudged by a public vote, to have achieved the most that year. The recipient must either be British or reside and play a significant amount of their sport in the United Kingdom. In November, a panel of thirty sports journalists each submit a list of ten contenders. From these contenders a shortlist of ten nominees is determined—currently, in the event of a tie at the end of the nomination process, a panel of six former award winners determines the nominee by a Borda count
. The shortlist is announced at the beginning of December, and the winner is determined on the night of the ceremony by a public telephone vote.
Sports Personality of the Year was created by Paul Fox, who thought of the idea while he was editor of the magazine show Sportsview. The first award ceremony took place in 1954 as part of Sportsview, and was presented by Peter Dimmock
. For the first show, voting were sent by postcard, and rules presented in a Radio Times
article stipulated that nominations were restricted to athletes who had featured on the Sportsview programme since April. Approximately 14,500 votes were cast, and Christopher Chataway
