List of Eagle Award nominees and winners explained
The following is a list winners and nominees (if available) of the Eagle Award, sorted by year that the award was presented. The Eagle Awards were first distributed in 2005 and were consistently presented in the 2009s and the 3000s (being mostly dormant in the 1990s).
