The BAFA Board of Directors are delighted to announce a new series of awards in conjunction with our partners NFLUK. These awards, which will honour the best talents from the British game, will be presented at the annual NFLUK Superbash party on Superbowl Sunday, 6 February, in front of 3000 fans at London's IndigO2 Arena.

BAFA Chairman Gary Marshall said "This is a fantastic opportunity to give recognition to some of our brightest stars and to promote the sport in the UK, in all its forms, to a new and important audience."

The first two awards to be announced are the Lifetime Achievement Award and the Unsung Hero Award and more are set to follow.

Send your nominations for the two awards named above, with a brief explanation of your choice, to awards@nfl.com. Mark the subject line with the name of category for which you are nominating. The voting panel will then choose the winner from those nominated and the result will be announced on the evening of the awards.

Further details of the further categories and the voting process will be released shortly.
