A Celebration of Sport at Wycombe Abbey
2 May 2025 - All
To honour the sports stars of the year, the PE Department hosted Wycombe Abbey’s annual Sports Awards at the start of the Summer Term. The evening celebrated all aspects of sport, including performance, participation, teamwork, sportsmanship, and commitment across a wide variety of disciplines over the past year.
To begin proceedings, following a brief introduction, we heard from our guest speaker, Alex Aljoe. Alex, a renowned British TV presenter and reporter, currently presents and reports for Premier League Productions on Sky Sports. She has established a strong reputation as a bilingual football journalist. She shared her experiences of interviewing David Beckham and Cristiano Ronaldo, as well as her groundbreaking interview with Luis Díaz, during which she translated live on television. Her career journey through a male-dominated industry was both fascinating and inspiring.
Before the event, pupils were nominated in each of the main sports played at school over the past year. The PE staff and coaches then shortlisted the nominees before selecting the winners. Prizes were awarded in various categories, including Player of the Season, Unsung Hero, Most Improved, Outstanding Performance of the Year, Team of the Year, and Lifetime Achievement.
