Hot on the heels of winning the BBC South West Sports Personality of the Year accolade earlier this week, diving sensation and Plymouth College pupil, Tom Daley, lifted the main award at the Plymouth event last night. His gold medal-winning dive at this year's World Championships also earned him the Champagne Moment award.
The Young Sports Personality award was won by former Plymouth College pupil and elite swimmer, Emma Wilkins. A member of Plymouth Leander, Emma competed for Great Britain in the World Championships this year. Another former pupil, cricketer James Burke, who has a contract with Somerset and represents England at U19 level, was a runner-up in this category.
Plymouth College's swimming partner, Plymouth Leander, had more to celebrate after winning the Team of the Year award, while Head Coach and Plymouth College Director of Swimming, Jon Rudd, was a runner-up in the Coach of the Year category.
Former world featherweight boxing champion, Barry McGuigan, was the guest of honour and presented the prizes.
