The eight-year-old received the junior sportsperson award for the month of July after a massive year in the sport.
“Mum received a phone call telling her I won this award,” he said.
“When she told us my brother and sisters hugged and congratulated me, then we all jumped around the room together.
“I felt happy, very happy. It makes me feel proud.
Thank you to the people who gave me this award.”
Corbyn said being recognised for his achievements makes him want to help other people more so they can feel special too.
Corbyn will now go in the running to take out the overall Junior Sportsperson of the Year Award at the annual awards night in 2017.
