It was an evening of sporting splendour at the Garware Club House in Churchgate as five city-based achievers across four disciplines were conferred Lifetime Achievement Awards by the Sports Journalists Association of Mumbai (SJAM) on Thursday.

Adille Sumariwalla (athletics), Diana Edulji (cricket), Sheila Kanungo (shooting), MM Somaya (hockey) and Prof Ratnakar Shetty (cricket administration) were recipients of the award previously given to badminton legend Nandu Natekar and cricket icon Sunil Gavaskar.
