Jack Petchey Achievement Award Scheme
The Jack Petchey Achievement Award scheme was formed to recognise “extreme endeavour
and to help young people to help themselves”. Phoenix swimming club has been successful
in applying to be able to make achievement awards its club members under this scheme.
We are now able to award a number of awards to individuals within the club during
the year. Awards are not necessarily for the fastest or most popular individuals,
but are intended to recognise those young people (aged 11-
Each award winner will receive a framed certificate and an invitation to a regional award ceremony at which they will be presented with a very nice Jack Petchey medallion. The winner will also be given a financial award (currently £300) to be used to fund one or more projects from the current club ‘wish list’.

Successful winners are awarded £1,000 to spend on a club project of their choice. The final decision on this award is made by the Jack Petchey foundation. We are now collecting nominations for 2008.
