Club Letters – Service and Competition

Those who are not Adelaide University students, but are Adelaide University Sport club members, are able to be nominated for Club Letter - Service and Competition awards. Club Letters recognise individuals who make their clubs great. 

  • Think about the person(s) who help your club run smoothly (committee members, coaches, team managers and uniform-washers etc). If they have done it for long enough, ‘Club Letters (Service)’ is the right award for them. 

  • Think about the athletes in your club who have been playing for many years. ‘Club Letters (Competition)’ is the right award for them. 

  • Nomination forms must be completed by a Club Committee member. Applications for Round 1 close Friday 31 May 2024

Intervarsity Certificate of Merit

The criteria for the award are as follows: 

  1. The Adelaide University student athlete must take part in an Adelaide University Sport recognised Intervarsity competition including but not limited to: Australian University Sport sanctioned events (Uni Nationals/Championships), interclub Intervarsity competitions, University Rugby 7s and Go8 competitions. 

  1. They must be recognised for their special performance at the event (eg MVP or competition award). 

  1. For the Uni Nationals, the athlete must have contributed greatly to either the team as a whole or the sport club which organised the sport team for the nationals, but did not play for that Adelaide University Sport club as its highest team was not of sufficient standard.  Athletes who compete in a sport that was not affiliated through Adelaide University Sport (eg handball, lawn bowls and ten pin bowling), would also be eligible.  

  1. The recognition be termed as an Adelaide University Sport Intervarsity ‘Certificate of Merit’ for outstanding performances and be given at the annual Blues awards function.    

  1. Nominations would be sought from Adelaide University Sport clubs and Intervarsity team managers. 

A student athlete can only receive one award per sport played at the University. 
For assessment of ‘level of contribution’ in criterion 2 above, the board would make that decision based on recommendations provided by the Adelaide University Sport and Fitness staff.
