The Northern Advocate People's Choice Award is on again and this year, we're celebrating Northland sports personalities.
The winner will be announced on December 5 at the 2014 Konica Minolta Sports Awards at Kensington's ASB Stadium.
Our final four are:
Seaside turf queen Donna Logan is renowned for her loyalty, generosity and success in the racing world.
The Ruakaka-based horse trainer's love affair with racing began in the 1970s, kick-starting a career spanning nearly 40 years.
Her passion for racing started when she was in her early teens when Logan, then Donna Graham, decided she wanted to be a jockey.
When it was suggested she should train horses too, Logan grasped the opportunity.
Since she gained her trainer's licence in 1987 she hasn't looked back, with hundreds of wins now to her credit.
Highlights during her training career include winning the group one Metropolitan Handicap at Randwick in Sydney with Victory Smile in 2002. Victory Smile went on to race in the Melbourne Cup - the Logans' first horse to run in the great race.
Another special horse for the Logan stable was the John and Karen Spragg-owned El Duce - which ran second in the NZ Derby and won the Wellington Guineas, Foxbridge Plate and the Queen Elizabeth Cup, as well as the Waikato Gold Cup, then came third in the Rosehill Guineas and second in Singapore's Raffles Cup.
In the past 12 months, Logan has had success with Habibi and Rising Romance, with the pair picking up several substantial wins.
While her lifestyle and family ties keep Logan in Ruakaka, it is also a desire to see fulfilled a dream she has for the area of a self-contained centre catering for all equestrian needs.
Colin "Tommo" Thomson has enjoyed a longer sporting career than many, having been the presenter on the More FM Saturday Sports Show for the past 14 years.
One of the so-called "perks" to Tommo's involvement in Northland sport has been his ability to follow the success of Northlanders in the sporting arena, often meeting future stars as teenagers and watching them go on to excel in their chosen sport.
Thomson says the opportunity to follow Northland sportspeople has been a pleasure, which has brought many highlights with it.
Moments from the past 14 years to have stood out to the chirpy presenter have been meeting the likes of Charotte Harrison and Tim Southee as youngsters and watching them go on to represent New Zealand at the highest level.
Luckily for Thomson, this highlight looks to be continuing as he has been interviewing athletes from the Educare Northland Sports Talent Hub.
Known as a sports enthusiast who is an ardent follower of all sports, Thomson is also very competitive on the sportsfield himself.
A previous Northland Tennis representative, Tommo is now a very keen golfer who is fully involved with the sporting area of the Kamo Club - taking out the Super Sport title on a number of occasions.
Having been involved in some form of sport for the past 69 years, Colin Thorne is a bit of a legend in that he's still competing at age 90.
Known for his efforts within marathon running, even competing at last year's New York Marathon, Colin originally started off playing rugby before moving into hockey, indoor bowls, cricket and running.
However, Colin's involvement goes beyond the sporting field as he has also had a hand in Northland sport through various boardrooms.
When he stopped playing hockey, he went into the administration side of the game, especially with JMB grades and was on many committees over the years while also picking up the whistle to umpire the game.
As a result of his dedication, Colin was made a Life Member of Hockey Northland - recognising his involvement with playing, coaching, umpiring, and committee work with hockey spanning more than 45 years.
After selling the family farm to his sons, he wanted to keep active so decided to try something different and this is when he decided to put on his jogging shoes at 64. He fell in love with the sport and did his first marathon the following year.
He then set himself a goal to complete 50 marathons, which he achieved in May this year at the Rotorua Marathon aged 90. Not a bad effort 50 marathons in 26 years.
Although nearly 91 years old, there are no signs of Colin giving up - his next goal is to complete 100 half marathons. He has completed 96 and hopes to crack the 100 by the end of the month.
With a nickname like 'Fanga Dan' it is no wonder Daniel Woolhouse is one of drifting's more successful drivers.
Spinning a car sideways and battling another car on a condensed track is all part of business for Woolhouse. However, there's more to the man than cars and burnouts.
Having been one of the leaders in drifting in Northland for a number of years, the two-time national champion isn't just about himself, as he now has a focus on giving back to the sport.
Last year, Woolhouse used his sporting success to successfully host the first FDC Motorsport Drift-Khana Day, with the idea of ensuring kids are drifting their cars in the right place rather than on the street.
Woolhouse's desire to give back was further fuelled by Northland parents who were asking him to try to set something up so their kids stopped thinking they were drifters when they were being boy racers.
A down-to-earth nice guy, Woolhouse is a humble Northland sportsperson who isn't about self-promotion and just competes because he loves the sport.
