The winners of Junior Vocal Solo classes JS1 to JS8 (excluding JS3a) go on to compete for the Sheffield Plate. This is a steel salver, presented for the first time in 1974 by adjudicator Dr David Clover from Sheffield. Dr Clover was impressed with the young singers in the solo classes, and presented this so that they could sing off against each other.
The Sheffield Plate contest takes place on the same evening as the Cleveland Medal Contest, and competitors and winners often go on to compete successfully in the Adult classes.
