Old Victorians' Association

Money raised via alumni events and other fund-raising programmes, such as our Foundation Partner initiative, generates funding to facilitate the Foundation's main objective, which is to make outstanding teaching and a broad range of co-curricular activities accessible to all by providing a full or partial bursary.

OVs can support the Foundation by attending fundraising driven alumni events, joining together with their workplace to support the various bursary and sponsorship opportunities available, or by leaving a legacy.

Being a Foundation Partner of Victoria College creates a strong bond between the school and your organisation. The support provided by Foundation Partners is invaluable to both students and the school as a whole.

Foundation Partners are welcome to decide their level of support to the school, should it be offering bursary support for one or multiple students, or one off donations.

Importantly, our Foundation Partners also contribute their time and expertise to our student's career development by taking part in our Careers Fairs, Careers Speed Networking event, mock job interviews and more. The Foundation Partnership agreement is an annual contract, which will allow the Foundation Partner access to our Graduate K.I.T contact database of recently graduated students.

Our students pride themselves on not only being academically successful, but also well rounded young gentlemen who would be an asset to any organisation, as they build these careers after leaving school.

For any further queries, please contact our Foundation Officer, or view the bursary and sponsorship opportunities brochure here.

The two key dates in the OV calendar have been the dinners in London and Jersey - prime events for renewing links and socialising uniquely. The London dinner usually takes place in a prestigious venue, such as Lords cricket ground. Venue and details will be available in due course.

The OVA runs successful cricket, hockey, shooting and squash teams, and also competes against the school at cricket, hockey, shooting and football. There is a highly successful annual OV golf event at the Royal Jersey.

The Old Victorians Cricket Club, generously sponsored by Rathbone Investment Management, have traditionally run two successful sides in the local weekend cricket leagues. We also have a more social Evening League side playing once, sometimes twice a week.  

Whilst the emphasis for the Premiership side is on high-quality cricket, the Rathbone OV Reserves look to provide a link between up-and-coming schoolboys (the "new OVs") and some highly experienced campaigners. The Evening League side aims to put out a social team, and all get a fair opportunity to perform.

The Old Victorians' Rifle Association is headquartered at the Rifle Range on College Field and is headed up by the Hon. Secretary, David Le Quesne.

The OVRA competes annually at Bisley, in the Angora Trophy and the Donegal Badge which is shot concurrently with the JRA Island Championship. Additionally the OVRA competes in the Victoria College Cup which pits the shooting skills of Old Victorians against current Victorians. A small-bore match between the OVRC and the old enemy, Old Elizabethans, was established in 2013. The cards are to be fired before the end of April and, after marking, the result will be announced at the Imperial at Bisley.
