The Patron's Cup 

The Patron's Cup is awarded to a club which had an outstanding achievement in the past 12 months. It is presented in recognition of Professor McWha's support of Adelaide University Sport during his 10-year tenure as Vice-Chancellor. This award does not have to be awarded annually; it is dependent on the standard of applications.

Club of the Year 

Clubs can now nominate themselves under the new process. The aim of the award is still “to recognise clubs with strong off field management”. The criteria values several key mandatory requirements which are of higher value compared to others. If a club does not meet these requirements and still nominates, they will receive a lower points score but will not be ruled out of consideration.
