Golfer Charlotte Gregory was voted by her fellow students as the University of Bath’s Sports Personality of the Year when the 2025 Blues Awards took place at the historic Roman Baths and Pump Room.
The Psychology student was presented with her prize by Cassie Wilson, the University’s Pro Vice-Chancellor (Student Experience), during the annual celebration of student sport.
This year’s ceremony also celebrated the achievements of the Paris 2024 Olympians and Paralympians who train or studied at the University of Bath, a UK Sport-accredited Elite Training Centre, through the presentation of Special Honorary Blues.
It was a double success for Gregory, who also received the Martyn Hedges Award – the highest accolade awarded by the University of Bath Blues Committee – in recognition of her work as player, team captain and chair with the University’s golf club.
The Ivor Powell Award for Excellence in Coaching went to Assistant Swimming Coach Andrei Vorontsov, who was previously Head Coach for Russia and Sweden at the London 2012 and Rio 2016 Olympic Games respectively.
An excellent evening for the judo club saw chair Ammar Mir receive the David Van de Linde Prize recognising sporting accomplishment, leadership and academic success, while the mixed team that dominated the 2025 BUCS Judo Championships was named as Team of the Year.
Rowing chair Calla Spires had double cause for celebration after Crew Bath took the Club of the Year accolade and she was named as Gethin John Bevan Club Member of the Year. Lucymay Treacy of the Bath Jets Cheerleading Club was SU Sport Volunteer Coach of the Year.
Alumni Fund Sporting Scholar Justin Davies was recognised with the BUCS Individual Performance of the Year honour after being crowned as the British Athletics 800m indoor champion. He, along with Spires and Olympic modern pentathlete Charlie Brown, was also on the Sports Personality of the Year shortlist.
Among those receiving Honorary Blues were long-standing badminton coach Peter Bush and seven athletes who have won World Championships or World Cup medals during the past year while training at the University – bobsleigh’s Leon Greenwood and Taylor Lawrence; karate’s Jonny Gough; skeleton’s Amelia Coltman, Tabby Stoecker and Freya Tarbit; and wheelchair fencer Joshua Waddell.
