Robin White Boxing Award

The Robin White Boxing Award is for talented and ambitious young sportsmen and women who want to combine boxing as a University level sport with further education at Durham University.  Applicants must demonstrate previous high level boxing experience.

This scholarship is available for students who commenced their undergraduate studies at Durham and who are able to demonstrate exceptional potential in their chosen sport.

The Robin White Boxing Award scholarship is worth £5,000 per academic year, for up to four years of an undergraduate course.

This scholarship has been gifted by University alumni who want to provide the same opportunity they were afforded, as well as offering informal mentorship throughout the scholar's time at the University. It is hoped the scholarship will create opportunities for talented individuals from diverse, low-income backgrounds and encourage scholars to make the most of the boxing, academic and extra-curricular programmes on offer at Durham University.
