After receiving multiple requests from talent management agencies, we have added a new category to our Manifest Play Awards.

Titled 'best talent partnership', the category is to be entered by talent management companies. In this category, a talent management firm can list a partnership it facilitated with an athlete and a brand. Winners will be the basis on how the sporting talent echoes the brand message. A talent management company can list multiple partnerships as separate entries.

The jury for the awards are:

• Finn Bradshaw, head-digital, ICC
• John Dykes, Sports Presenter
• Joy Bhattacharya, CEO, Prime Volleyball League
• Mayur Hola, vice president - brand, Swiggy
