Sports awards

Please note:  The scheme is currently closed for applications and will re-open in September 2012.

Are you able to demonstrate a high level of commitment, skill and achievement in your chosen sport in the last twelve months? If the answer is yes then you may be able to apply for a young achievers sports award.  We will expect you to be competing at a County standard (or equivalent).

• live within South Oxfordshire District Council's area
• be aged between 11 and 18 (at the closing date)
• be able to demonstrate a high level of commitment and skill in your chosen sport
• be able to send in certificates or proof of your achievements
• be competing at a county level standard (or equivalent) in the last 12 months
• be able to tell us your aims/ambitions for the future
• be able to send in two references from a club official, teacher or relevant sport governing body (not a relative or close friend) confirming the achievements you have made over the last twelve months, together with details of any events (including venue and dates)
• be able to send a recent photograph of yourself competing or training.
