The decision was made after taking into consideration the cancellation and postponement of major international sports events across the world, including the 2020 Tokyo Olympic Games and Paralympic Games, due to Covid-19 pandemic.
Organised under the banner of the Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Global Initiatives, the MBR Creative Sports Award prides itself as one of the leading voices in the world for the promotion creativity in sports as well as the wellbeing of sportspeople, and, taking the current situation into consideration, it has decided to reschedule the Awards Ceremony of the 11th edition to January, 2022.
The decision was also made to allow a greater number of athletes and sports institutions to participate in the 11th edition of the Awards, especially with the 2020 Olympic and Paralympic Games being rescheduled for 2021.
