The Competition is Tough as Your Favorite Athletes Hope You Declare Them a Winner at the 2016 Kids' Choice Sports Awards!
They keep us on the edge of our seats during nail-biting competitions, serve as role-models for those who need motivation to achieve our goals, and spend much of their life training and perfecting (usually) one talent. Let's face it... athletes rule! Nickelodeon is giving them their due credit with the third annual, Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Sports Awards. The final decision is in your hands as you cast your vote for your sporty faves!
For the second year in a row, (but for the first time as a newlywed) Seattle Seahawks quarterback, Russell Wilson, will host the festivities that take place in UCLA's Pauley Pavilion. The show airs at 8:00PM EST, July 17 on Nickelodeon. He should know what to expect right? He's a pro now!
