The voting panel consisted of Clyde Basel, Alistair Cohen, Patrick Davis, Jason Dedekind, and Germaine Maharaj and while some categories were fairly predictable, others attracted heated debate.  The Chairman of the voting panel Vee Moodley, Phumelela Gaming and Leisure’s Executive Director, Sports Betting, kept matters under control to ensure a fair process.

The following points structure was applied:

1st                     2nd                    3rd

Grade 1                                  12                     9                      7
