The National Athletics League presents an Athlete of the Year Award to the athlete who achieves the best track or field performance at National League fixtures.

Athletes must be from NAL member clubs and have been declared as scoring athletes within the event. Award recipients are those who achieve the highest number of points for a single NAL event based upon Professor Mick Bromilow’s Event Scoring Table. Recipients are not eligible for NAL Divisional Athlete Awards.

The 2024 Female Track Athlete of the Year is Jessica Tappin for her 57.31-second 400m hurdles victory at Eton in June.

Molly Caudery – of the same club – gets Female Field Athlete of the Year for her league-record breaking 4.50m pole vault clearance at the same NAL meeting.
