More students from Newcastle-under-Lyme College (NULC) than ever before have been selected to represent the West Midlands region in national British Colleges Sport (BCS) competitions.
A group of 17 students from TEAM:NULC have been selected to play for the West Midlands in Hockey, Netball, Ladies Football, Rugby Union and Men’s Football.
The successful students all attended a trial at Warwickshire College on Wednesday 6 October where they competed for TEAM:NULC against other students from colleges across the West Midlands .
Trevor Humphreys, Academy of Sport Manager and Lecturer at NULC, said: “We’re overjoyed that 17 of our students have been chosen to represent the West Midlands – this is the most students we’ve ever had selected and is testament to the high quality training and support they receive here.”
He continued: ”All students who become part of TEAM:NULC are invited to represent the College in BCS competitions in order to help them progress and gain recognition in their chosen sport. This is a fantastic opportunity for all the students involved and I wish them every success.”
All sports represented by the College have the opportunity to progress to the BCS regional finals, which are held at Lilleshall Sport Centre in Shropshire , from which the England Colleges teams are selected.
