PLx Awards 2025 - Content and Video Brief
Description
What is it?
The PLx conference and awards happen annually and are a chance to connect, learn and to recognise the success and achievements taking place across the Olympic and Paralympic high performance sport community.
This year the conference and awards are taking place at the Queens Hotel, Leeds, on 2-3 December 2025. The content outlined in this brief will be used on the evening of the 2nd when the awards ceremony takes place.
Who is it for?
In attendance at the event will be members from the high performance community, this includes the performance directors and head coaches at all our recognised Olympic and Paralympic sports here in the UK and may also include some of the wider team within Great Britain sporting set-ups, from physiotherapists, nutritionists and even the athletes themselves. Alongside VIPs including representatives from the UK Sport board and our partners The National Lottery.
What is required?
We require a creative agency to produce a range of video, photographic, visual assets and written content for the PLx Awards. As well as provide project management support to engage with representatives of all nominating organisations, to enable coordination and delivery of this work on time and on budget.
We're open to how the content is collected, across what would be a maximum of 24 nominees.
The video content should feature the nominee and spokespeople providing commentary on their nomination.
Some nominees/spokespeople maybe collocated in the same place where there are hubs for Olympic and Paralympic sport i.e. Manchester, Sheffield, Loughborough. However, the geographical spread is unknown until the final nominees have been selected by the awards panel. We do not expect for the nominees to travel to a single location to facilitate content collection.
All assets will be required to be produced to meet UK Sport brand guidelines: https://brandpad.io/uksport/
