Dating back to 1947 the annual University of Exeter Sport Colours and Awards Ceremony was held on Wednesday 29th May at Reed Hall.
It was once again a fantastic afternoon celebrating students sporting success across their time at University. We were lucky enough to be joined by Mike Shore-Nye (Registrar and Secretary), Tim Quine (Deputy Vice-Chancellor) and Linda Peka (Deputy Registrar and Executive Divisional Director of Education and Academic Services) who presented the awards. Students received one of the following in recognition of their achievement, dedication and contribution to sport within their associated AU club whilst at University:
University Colours -University Colours are awarded to students who have gained full or under-21 international representation while regularly representing the University at the highest level and performing with unusual distinction. University Colours will be reviewed each year, and a student may be awarded a University Colour multiple times whilst at university.
Club Colours -Awarded for exceptional achievement within a sport, including national student representation or other representative honours. Outstanding performance for the University of Exeter in inter-university competition shall be given particular weight. Club colours are only awarded once and in the year of achievement.
Club Award -Awarded to a student who has given outstanding service and commitment to their club and in their final year of study. This can be a member of the committee, team captain, a student coach or a volunteer who goes above and beyond to serve their club. Administrative contribution, leadership roles, playing service, coaching, dedication, loyalty and being a positive role model are all terms that are associated with this individual.
