Ryan Degiorgio and Kohath Mallia, who form part of the Kalkara Regatta Club's Frejgatini Category B's crew, are the winners of the TGS Malta Fair Play Award covering this year’s July-September period.
This quarterly award, handed by the Malta Sports Journalists Association and the Malta Fair Play Movement in collaboration with Together Gaming Solutions, is aimed at sporting individuals or teams who would have distinguished themselves with an altruistic gesture of fair play during official and/or non-official competitions. On Sunday 8th September, during the latest edition of the Regatta tal-Vitorja, the crew of Kalkara Regatta Club’s Frejgatini Category B won their race. Shortly after their victory, they noticed that Shaun Farrugia, one of Bormla’s crew, appeared to be fainting. Rather than celebrating, they immediately went to assist him, signalling to the paramedics to continue providing the care he needed. “A truly inspiring show of sportsmanship, showing that care and kindness come first in competition. A big applause to Ryan Degiorgio and Kohath Mallia,” said Edward Licari, Director of Together Gaming Solutions. The presentation of the TGS Malta Fair Play Award was hosted by Andrea Critien from the Finance & HR Department and Edward Licari, Director of Together Gaming Solutions, at their offices in St. Julian’s. Charles Camenzuli was present on behalf of the Malta Fair Play Movement, while Stephen Azzopardi (MSJA Administrator) represented the Malta Sports Journalists Association. Members of the public, teams, or officials can notify the Malta Sports Journalists Association and the Malta Fair Play Movement of any fair play gesture, by contacting them at info@maltasportsjournalists.com for consideration.
