Greyhound of the Year Awards




This page is about the British Greyhound Awards. For the irish awards, see Irish Greyhound of the Year Awards.


The Greyhound of the Year Awards are the annual awards for the leading greyhounds in the United Kingdom.


The British Greyhound Breeders & Owners Association inaugurated the Silver Greyhound Awards in 1958 and every year the winners were announced at the annual dinner and ball at the Dorchester Hotel. In 1970 the voting switched to the Greyhound Trainers & Breeders Association and the venue changed to the London Hilton on Park Lane. [1] In 1982 the Greyhound Writers Association took over the voting and today the awards are now known as the Greyhound Board of Great Britain annual awards which are held at a different venue every year.
