Tickets

UPDATE! We've listened to your feedback, and because loans aren't in until the week of the awards, you now have the option to reserve your place for free!

Reserving a place

If you're struggling to get your ticket before your third term loan comes in, you can now reserve a place at Sports Awards for free.

You'll need to submit your food order and which club you want to be seated with when you reserve your place, and you'll need to pay the cost of your ticket before the day of the event (Friday 28 April). If you reserve a place you'll have until Friday 21 April to let us know if you aren't able to attend - after then you will need to pay the cost of the ticket, or sell your place on to another student.

Reserve your place

Ticket sales

As we know the student loan doesn’t always stretch as far as you like, we’re continuing to offer the option to pay a deposit now and the remaining balance when term 3 loans come in just before the event. You can also purchase full price tickets now.

Afterparty tickets are also on sale now, and if you buy before midday, Friday 21 April you get free transport from Charlton to Sparrows! After then, Afterparty entrance will also be available on the door at Sparrows but transport will not be available.

We have to confirm food orders to the venue ahead of the event, so the deadline of Friday 21 April is final. You will need to place your food order when purchasing your full price ticket or deposit, and if you decide to not attend after purchasing your deposit you must inform activities@gre.ac.uk before the ticket deadline or you will still need to pay the remaining balance.

You will also be asked the full names of attendees when purchasing your deposit or full price ticket. If you need to change this please email activities@gre.ac.uk with the full name of who is no longer attending, and the full name of who that ticket should now be allocated to.

If you have food allergies that mean the options above are not appropriate for you, please select ‘FOOD ALLERGY’ from the option list when purchasing your ticket and contact Plamena, Activities & Events Coordinator, at plamena.kadiyska@gre.ac.uk with details of your allergy so she can liaise with the caterers to find a suitable option.

Seating Plan

You will be asked when purchasing your ticket which Team Greenwich club you wish to attend with. This will be the club you will be sat as part of during the event.

We will place clubs on tables of 8-10, which may be shared with other clubs depending on the numbers. After the ticket deadline the Club Chairs will be sent lists of who is attending from that club to allocate individual seating. We suggest speaking to friends and other members and sorting this beforehand as much as possible!

Club Chairs – if you have any questions about this please get in contact with Plamena at plamena.kadiyska@gre.ac.uk.

 

Awards & Colours

Awards

The majority of the awards presented on the night have the same nomination & voting system – anyone can nominate any club or individual (including your own club/yourself), and then each Team Greenwich club votes to decide the winner.

Nominations will be open until midday, Friday 7 April, for any student, staff member, or club coach to submit as many nominations as they wish.

Nomination Forms

A nomination shortlist for each award is then compiled ready for club voting. Shortlists are created by the VPSA and Activities Manager checking that the nomination is valid – the criteria for validity is whether they feel the details given in the nomination have sufficiently answered the questions asked in the nomination form.

Nomination shortlists will be sent to Club Chairs by Monday 10 April at the very latest for the club to collectively choose who they wish to vote for. We expect being able to send the shortlist earlier than that date, but are aware many clubs will be on sports tour. Voting is done using the same method as the SU Officer Elections, where you put in order your preference of clubs/individuals shortlisted for that award.

Clubs need to return their votes to Plamena (plamena.kadiyska@gre.ac.uk) by midday, Wednesday 19 April.

Colours & Blues

Colours are awarded to students who have consistently represented University teams in a specific sport, performed at a high standard or shown a constant commitment to their club for two or more seasons.

Blues are awarded to student who have participated in their sports at a regional level following a selection process.

Full Blues are awarded to students who have participated in their sport at a national or international level following a selection process.

Colours and Blues nominations are compiled by Club leaders, and must be returned to activities@gre.ac.uk  by 6pm Monday 18th April (one list per club). Click here for the template for Colours & Blues nominations.
