Awards & Grants

Student with sports awards

Sports Awards

In June the College sports teams come together for the Sports Awards Evening. The hosts for the event are the JCR Exec Sports Officers and twenty-one trophies and shields are presented by the Director of Sport, Kim Montgomery. College colours are also awarded at this event. Each award winner gets an individual shield to keep as the engraved trophies are proudly displayed in the College’s admin foyer throughout the year.

Final year students with awards

Final Year Awards

Any member of Pendle College can nominate a final year student for any of these awards. All you need to do is to send in the name of your nominee and the reason you feel they deserve the award. Awards are presented, if possible, at Graduation each year.

  • Donovan Tagg Award – this is Pendle’s highest award, given to a final year student (or in some instances other members of the College), who have made a significant contribution to the life and spirit of College.
  • The George Hayhurst Award – given to a final year who has worked hard to uphold the College tradition.
  • The Marcus Merriman Award – presented to a final year student who has worked tirelessly for the College and is loyal to the collegiate system.
  • Commitment to College Awards – for students who have represented the College in any way and whose loyal and continuous contribution has been beneficial to the College.

Please let the College have your nominations by Friday, Week 28 by either emailing the College Manager, or by handing in your nomination to the College Office, Pendle Porter or any member of the JCR Exec.
