In addition to announcing the spring sports nominees, The Cincinnati Enquirer is pleased to share that legendary Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Ken Anderson will speak at The Enquirer All-Star Awards show, presented by Beacon Orthopaedics & Sports Medicine.
The live show will be Monday, June 17, 2024, at Princeton High School's Matthews Auditorium, 150 Viking Way, Cincinnati, Ohio 45246.
The event will celebrate the successes of the Enquirer's top choices for athletes, coaches and teams of the year from Southwest Ohio, Northern Kentucky and Southeast Indiana.
“Everyone knows how much high school sports matter in Greater Cincinnati and it’s our privilege to be able to honor these outstanding athletes and coaches for their accomplishments on and off the field," senior editor for sports Jason Hoffman said. "High school sports are one of the best ways to build the foundation for a successful future in our communities because of the invaluable lessons learned and lifelong bonds shared with both teammates and competitors.”

The night will be split into two sessions ‒ a fall sports session at 5 p.m. (doors open at 4:30 p.m.) and a winter/spring session at 7:30. Each nominated athlete gets a maximum of four free tickets. Reservations are required because seating is limited. Deadline is June 12 but nominees should reserve their tickets as soon as possible.
Important: Please do not reserve more than four tickets per nominee, even if athletes are nominated twice. There will be an opportunity after the June 12 deadline to reserve any unclaimed tickets on a first-come, first-served basis. To repeat, seating is limited.
Here are the nominees for spring, premium, winter and fall awards. The premium awards will be presented at the end of the 5 p.m. session and reiterated in the second. Girls tennis will be presented with the spring sports in the 7:30 p.m. session.
