Sara Misir will receive the 2023 RJR Gleaner female motor sport athlete of the year award for her accomplishments in local and international circuit racing while Fraser McConnell is the awardee in the male category in recognition of his achievements in international Rally Cross. In a surprise announcement, McConnell is also in contention for the overall Male Athlete of the Year title.
When announcing McConnell’s nomination in the Male Sportsman of the Year category, Mike Fennell, chairman of the Selection Committee, noted Fraser as the only non-Track & Field athlete in the category in a World Championship year, saying “Motorsport isn’t easy, but he has, through his own connections, provided himself with those resources, and it shows that we have the talent to do great things in many different sports, and what he’s done is phenomenal.” The Male Sportsman of the Year winner will be announced at the live ceremony to be held at The Jamaica Pegasus hotel on January 19, 2024.
JMMC congratulates Sara and Fraser for their motor sport category awards, and wish Fraser good luck in the overall Male Sportsman of the Year category.
