Annalise is the 2016 “Irish Times / Sport Ireland” Sportswoman of the year

2016 draws to a close with another accolade for our Olympic hero Annalise Murphy, who was named The Irish Times/Sports Council of Ireland’s Sportswoman of the Year in Dublin last Friday.

Annalise was Sportswoman of the Month for August, the same month of that outstanding achievement for Irish sport in Rio de Janeiro.

And that’s not counting her Sailor of the Month nod from Afloat.ie in August, as well as Irish Tatler’s Woman of the Year gong last month, her honorary membership of the Irish Sailing Foundation, the Sports Star of the Year Honour at last night’s Echo Sports Awards, and a share of Rehab’s Sportsperson of the Year Award!!

Vote for Annalise for RTE Sportsperson of the Year

Dear Members,

Annalise has been nominated for RTE Sportsperson of the Year but has some strong competition so we would very be grateful if you could vote for her on:
