Flemish Sportsjewel

The Flemish Sportsjewel is an annual award given to a Flemish sportsperson, either following a remarkable achievement or at the end of an exceptional career in sports.[1]

Each individual can only win the award once during his or her career, making this trophy one of the most prestigious in Flemish sports. The trophy is awarded by the Flemish Administration represented by the Flemish Minister for Sport, and was first handed out in 1982.[1]
