Sport Social Podcast Network celebrated a standout night at the prestigious Campaign Audio Advertising Awards 2026, taking home two major awards: Sales Team of the Year and Best Host Read Ad for its campaign with Topps Trading Cards.

The wins saw Sports Social triumph against some of the industry’s biggest names reinforcing its position as one of the UK’s leading podcast and audio advertising businesses.

Sport Social were awarded Sales Team of the Year in recognition of its continued growth, innovation and ability to redefine what a sports audio business can offer brands through audio, video, social content and live experiences.

In their comments the judges said:

“This win recognises a sales operation that helped redefine what a sports audio business could offer to brands. Moving beyond a pure podcast proposition, it built a broader creator-led ecosystem spanning audio, video, social content and live experiences, making the medium easier to buy and far more versatile for advertisers.”

They continued, “that shift was not just commercial positioning; it reflected a sharp understanding of how clients now want to reach fan communities through connected channels rather than isolated media lines. In a crowded and competitive market, the team emerged as a credible challenger by combining deep category knowledge with a clear sense of where audio advertising is heading.”
