CBC Sports’s Senior Contributor Shireen Ahmed’s column about France’s ban on women wearing hijabs while playing sports won second place for column writing Tuesday at the AIPS Sports Media Awards in Morocco.

“How can France claim to champion women when it is stripping them away from sport in a move that is blatantly opposed to the IOC’s own human rights framework?” Ahmed wrote in her piece, French hijab ban in sports called a ‘shameful moment’ as it prepares to host Olympics.  It was published July 18, 2024, just days before the Paris Olympics opened.

Ahmed’s column was one of more than 2,000 submissions from journalists in 136 countries in a variety of categories the International Sports Press Association (AIPS) recognized at their annual gala.

Tianhao Shen, of China’s Titan Sports, won top spot for his column A United Euro 2024, an Ununited Europe.
