The meetings of the jury responsible for awarding the 2018 Princess of Asturias Award for Sports, the fourth of eight international awards that will be bestowed by the Princess of Asturias Foundation, will be held on May 15th and 16th. The awards will be bestowed this year for the XXXVIII edition in their history. Twenty-one candidatures, from twelve different countries, have been nominated for this award. The meetings will be held at the Reconquista Hotel, Oviedo.

As stated in the Regulations, the Princess of Asturias Awards are aimed at rewarding “the scientific, technical, cultural, social and humanitarian work carried out at an international level by individuals, institutions or groups of individuals or institutions”. In keeping with these principles, the Princess of Asturias Award for Sports shall be aimed at recognizing “the work of promoting, fostering and advancing sport in such a way that, through solidarity and commitment, this work also constitutes an example of the benefits that practising sports can bring to people.”

The Award comprises a Joan Miró sculpture representing and symbolising the accolade, a diploma, an insignia and a cash prize of €50,000.

The members of the Jury will hold a first meeting with the media at 11:00am (GMT+2:00) on Tuesday 15th in the Hotel’s “Salón de Consejos” (first floor) immediately prior to its formal constitution and the start of its deliberations, which will commence at 11:30am. The jury will then elect a president from amongst them. The jury secretary will be appointed by the Foundation.

Their decision will be made public at 12 noon (GMT+2:00) on Wednesday 16th in the “Salón Covadonga” of the Hotel (on the ground floor), and jury members will then be available for interviews.

The reading of the jury’s decision will be transmitted via Hispasat satellite (America and Europe). In addition, there will be a live Internet broadcast at the Foundation's website: www.fpa.es
