The only kids’ show celebrating Australia and New Zealand’s best athletes and epic sports moments, Nickelodeon’s Kids’ Choice Sports Awards builds upon a long-standing history of celebrating the sports and athletes kids love, giving kids the power to choose the biggest sports stars to win awards from eleven uniquely unconventional categories.

Ben Cox, General Manager and Vice President of Nickelodeon Australia and New Zealand welcomes the partnership and the extended reach of the programme. “Nickelodeon has always had a strong connection to sports, and no one loves sports more than Aussie and Kiwi families. Tara and Jack coming on board as hosts combined with the simultaneous premiere on Fox Sports highlights the family co-viewing that sports offers.”
