We are thrilled to announce that the nominations for this year’s Sports Ball awards are now available to view!

Our PE Department and extra-curricular staff have carefully selected students who have demonstrated outstanding commitment, skill, and passion in sport throughout the year.

To celebrate and showcase this year’s incredible sporting achievements, we’ve put together a special video presentation highlighting all the nominees across the team and individual categories.

This year’s Sports Ball will be held on Friday, 11th July 2025 at The John Day Sports Hall, Wales High School from 7 pm until 10.30 pm. The evening will consist of the presentation of awards, a guest speaker from the world of sport, student performances, a raffle, a disco and much more; there will be external food vendors on the evening, and there will be a licensed bar where you can purchase drinks. Parents are encouraged to attend. The aim of the evening is to enjoy ourselves and celebrate the sporting achievements of our talented and committed young people.

We do have restrictions on numbers, therefore, please make your payment as soon as possible to guarantee tickets.
