In the American Kennel Club’s ongoing efforts to recognize and celebrate its volunteer club members, The AKC Outstanding Sportsmanship Award program was established in 2006 to provide each AKC Member Club with an embossed AKC medallion to award on a yearly basis.
This award honors those individuals who deserve special recognition that have made a difference in the Sport of Purebred Dogs, embody the AKC Code of Sportsmanship, and have been an active and valued member of an AKC Member Club. Medallions are awarded solely at the club’s discretion.
For more information about the Outstanding Sportsmanship Award Program or to notify AKC about your club’s recipient to be listed on the web site please contact Alexandra DeLeon via email.
