Admissions

Sport Awards

We are committed to supporting pupils who show exceptional talent, promise, and dedication to sport. Those who excel benefit from specialist coaching, first-class facilities, and continuous encouragement at every stage of their journey at the College.

What does it involve?

Sport Awards offer successful candidates specialist coaching sessions, a regularly assessed strength and conditioning programme, and a dedicated tutor from the Sports Department to help them achieve their sporting goals while maintaining a sensible and sustainable routine in the school.

Successful candidates will be invited to an assessment day, designed to understand their all-round sporting ability. The day is typically split into three parts and looks at physical, technical and mental agility.
