Academies

All programmes involve regular coaching, strength and conditioning programmes, nutrition plans and medical support as well as individual player development programmes to nurture and develop players individual sports talents.

Our athletes will then represent the College in fixtures as part of national and international league and cup competitions.

Students must be studying a full-time College course whilst taking part in Sports Academy.  Should students not enrol on a Sports Studies course, they must speak with their department to check that their timetable will allow for them to attend training sessions and fixtures. As an individual, they can still play and compete for their local club.

Our Sports Academies are open to all 16-19 year old students (who show the required levels of motivation and ability) regardless of the combination of subjects that you choose to study, however it is the student’s responsibility to ensure that they are available to attend and be part of the academy.
