As well as awarding trophies in a number of categories at the Annual Dinner each year, BOK also runs two sets of events that culminate in League winners; the Local League and the Urban Series. BOK Local League comprises between six and eight local events each season in the Bristol area, with the best four or five results used to calculate a series score. We award a trophy at the end of the season to the series winners of the White, Yellow, Orange, Light Green and Green courses. The trophies are awarded at the Annual Dinner in May or June. The Local League is open to members of any orienteering club, as long as long as they are members of British Orienteering.
A brief guide to the origins of the named trophies can be found at the bottom of this page. Performance based awards are decided on the year ending at the JK.

BOK Trophies and Awards
Janet Beesley Awards (for Most Promising Juniors)
Janet Beesley, with husband Roger and their three children, was a stalwart supporter of BOK and the Avon Schools Orienteering Association (ASOA, now ASO). The trophies for most promising junior boy and junior girl (constructed and presented to the Klub by Don Jones in 1990) were dedicated to the memory of Janet who died in 1994.
Huw O'Brien Trophy (for Highest Ranked M40)
The trophy for Highest Ranked M40 (part funded by donations from NGOC and the North West Orienteering Club in New Zealand) is dedicated to the memory of Huw O'Brien who died while orienteering at an event at Cleeve Hill. It was first awarded in 1993.
Don Jones Trophy (for Most Improved Veteran)
The trophy for the Most Improved Veteran (first awarded in 1981) was made by Don Jones, from Rolls-Royce turbine engine blades. Don was a very active mapper, planner and organiser; after he passed away in 2002 the trophy was named in his honour.
The Denham Trophy
The Denham Trophy was donated in 1998 by Denis Hamment, to be awarded to the highest scoring Klub member on the BOF Ranking List.It is now presented to the highest ranked male with a new, as yet unnamed, award given to the highest ranked female. Denis was one of the longest serving members of the Klub, having acted, inter alia, as Permissions Officer and Klub Treasurer (for eight years).
