There are nine categories in the awards, including sport, courage in sport, community, artistic achievement, youth, spirit of attitude, employer, person of the year and Attitude Hall of Fame. Entrants will range from supreme NZ athletes to Kiwis who family, friends and neighbours think should be recognised for their courage, perseverance or support for people who live with disabilities.

The winners in each category will be announced at a black tie event at Eden Park's ASB Lounge in Auckland on December 3, coinciding with World Disability Day.
