Lionel Conacher Award

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Lionel Conacher Award is an annual award given to Canada\'s male athlete of the year. The sports writers of the Canadian Press (CP) first conducted a poll to determine the nation\'s top athlete, of either gender, in 1932. Separate polls for the best male and female athletes were conducted beginning the following year. The CP formalized the poll into an award in 1978, presenting their winner with a plaque. It was named after Lionel Conacher, a multi-sport champion whom the news organization had named its top athlete of the half-century in 1950. The award is separate from the Lou Marsh Trophy, in which a select panel of sports writers vote for their top overall athlete.
