  • The Philips Sports Manager of the Year is an award for the person considered to be the most outstanding Irish sports manager or coach of a particular year. The award is contested by the twelve winners of the year's Philips Sports Manager of the Month Awards, which are open to Irish sports managers, trainers or coaches, or overseas-born managers of Irish teams. Because the annual ceremony is traditionally held on the first Thursday of December each year, the December winner from the previous year is eligible to compete. Unusually, the award was instigated not by a sporting body or journalists' association, but by the event sponsors themselves, Philips. Uniquely, there were two winners in 1990 as the achievement of Cork doing the first All-Ireland hurling and football double in exactly 100 years saw respectively managers Fr Michael O'Brien and Billy Morgan honoured. The 2006 Philips Sports Manager of the Year is chosen on December 7th 2006.
