Quinn, McCoy in the running for Sky News award
The former international footballer, and the most successful jump jockey of all time, are the only Irish nominees for the awards. The Irish golfers in the successful European Ryder Cup team have also been nominated, but Irish viewers only have a few more days to vote for their heroes before the lines close at 6pm on Monday.
The four categories that people can be nominated in are: heroism, innovation, sporting champions and an offbeat category called, “turn back time”.
