About the Pliable Athlete Awards

Pliable Athlete Awards

The annual awards recognize Pliable athletes from across the country who have experienced success in their sport, in their community and beyond.

Each year, the awards include recognition for the Female and Male Athlete of the Year, NIL partnerships, community endeavors and career opportunities. Each category includes Pliable athletes who were nominated by fans or the Pliable awards committee. The award nominees are then voted on by the public. 

The winners for the 2025 Pliable Awards were announced on January 20, 2026. See all the winners below.

Congrats to all the athletes on their accomplishments!
