It should outline the Club’s areas of

not limited to);
 the number of relevant events attended or held
 a written explanation of why the person or club should receive this
award
 the numbers attending or affected by the event or activity (members
compared to non‐members if you think this is relevant)
 positive feedback from any relevant host or spectator of the activity,
etc
 any other relevant facts and figures you can conjure up.
You can also attach any other relevant evidence, like photos, flyers,
website links; anything that supports your nomination, basically.
The submission should also briefly outline how this event or activity:
 Helped improve the student experience at the University of
Canterbury, and
 Helped improve the Club, the UCSA and the University of
Canterbury’s reputation.
The purpose of this submission is to give you the opportunity to outline
why you feel that you deserve to win this category. You need to be as
convincing as possible. Your nomination form, written submission(s) and
other evidence MUST BE HANDED INTO UCSA RECEPTION BEFORE THE
CLOSING DATE OF FRIDAY 6TH SEPTEMBER, 4pm.
A UCSA created review panel will consider the club’s submission and a
review from an independent UCSA appointed reviewer who will have
attended event/s. The panel will rank the club for their performance in
each nominated area.
The review panel will also use its discretion to evaluate the importance of
the Club’s or individual’s contribution for the nominated area, looking at:
a) How the Club’s or individual’s actions enhanced the student
experience at the University of Canterbury, and
b) How the Club’s or individual’s actions enhanced the reputation of
the Club or individual, the UCSA and the UC.
The panel will make the final decision on the award winner in each award
category.
