Chesterfield Radio Team Reach The Sporting Peak
Earlier this month the presenters of Peak FM’s Total Sport narrowly lost out on claiming national honours at an awards ceremony at London’s Century Club.
Fresh from winning best Sports Content at the annual UTV Awards, the team was shortlisted for a prestigious IRN commercial radio award in the same category. Despite not coming away with the top prize they were named as one of the top three commercial radio sports programs in the country.
Total Sport presenter Tom Hilton said:
“Obviously as sports guys we were desperate to go all the way and win the award, but to earn the recognition from a panel of industry experts is a pretty decent consolation prize.”
“As long as those loyal Spireites fans who tune into us on a match day are happy with what we do then we can’t really ask for more though.”
The nomination was based on Peak FM’s coverage of Chesterfield’s fantastic season 2013-2014 which saw the Spireites grace the hallowed turf at Wembley; clinch promotion away at Burton Albion and then seal the League Two Championship trophy at the Proact Stadium on the first Saturday in May.
They covered every angle of the season from the press box to pitch-side at Wembley to the open top bus ride around Chesterfield and the civic reception at the Town Hall.
You can listen to the team on Peak FM on Saturday afternoons between 2 and 6pm.
