Many of you will remember either playing with, or posing for photographs taken by, Steve Nash.
Steve played for the Club from the late 1980’s through into the 19990’s and many of his sports and team photo’s grace our pavilion walls.
Photography was a hobby for Steve, and he particularly enjoyed photographing Greyhound Racing which was another of his loves.
In the 1990’s Steve took the big decision to forego “conventional work” and strike out as a Sports Photographer.
He has provided material to the Racing Post since the publication commenced over 25 years ago, and in recent years has been employed by them.
He is also fairly regularly seen on, and involved with, Sky Sports Greyhound Racing coverage and is very well respected a a fine photographer within the Greyhound Racing fraternity.
Steve’s prowess and skill has now been recognised with a prestigous formal award.
Steve has been awarded the 2015 Greyhound Writers Association “Services to Greyhound Racing Award”.
Steve will be fast out of the traps to collect his Award at the Greyhound Racing Board’s Annual Award Evening at the Royal Lancaster Hotel later this month.
Despite his busy professional life Steve still does work for the Club when asked, and I am sure you will join us in offering him and Liz our congratulations on his latest professional recognition.
