The Western Forces own Nic White is among the top 10 elite Australian athletes vying for the Sports Dad of the Year award to be announced on Father's Day on Sunday, September 1.
Now in its 15th year the award showcases the contribution Australia's sporting elite make to their families both on and off the field. Last years winner, Queensland Origin captain Daly Cherry-Evans, matched his prize money to donate $10,000 to the Gotcha4Life Foundation.

A proud father of three boys - Leo (6), Sonny (4), and Vin (2) - Nic is relishing his new life in Perth as part of the Western Force, a club known for its strong family-oriented culture. Reflecting on fatherhood, Nic said: "Being a dad has been the most rewarding experience of my life. Its made me more grounded and given me a different perspective on everything."
Balancing his rugby career with family life, Nic cherishes moments with his children, whether they are playing at home or enjoying the outdoor activities Perth has to offer.
"Sport is a constant in our household, with the boys eagerly participating in activities like run club, jujitsu, nippers, Auskick, rugby, and swimming each week, he said. They love being outdoors and have really taken a shine to the pump tracks in Perth lately!"
This years finalists also feature NRL stars Jared Waerea-Hargreaves, Thomas Burgess and Reuben Cotter, Supercar champion David Reynolds, five-time Paralympian Brenden Hall, NBA and Boomers icon Joe Ingles, Olympic gold medalist and Grand Slam winner Matt Ebden, along with AFL greats Patrick Dangerfield and Lachie Neale, both celebrated for their leadership and multiple accolades, including the prestigious Brownlow Medal.
