The annual end of season awards evening will take place at Headingley’s impressive Howard Suite and with just over a month until the event, 400 tickets have already been sold.

Former England cricket star Graham Gooch is the guest speaker and among the guests will be Britain’s greatest ever Paralympian athlete Baroness Tanni Grey-Thompson.
