College Sports Academy ‘One College, One Team’
Collyer’s provides a unique opportunity, by being able to offer an outstanding education, but still allowing students the opportunity to develop their chosen sport alongside their studies.
Our Sports Academy includes Basketball, Netball, Football, Hockey, Rugby, and a number of individual sports. These sports can access increased coaching hours, links to performance centres, physio support, video analysis and strength & conditioning programmes. All academies also have strong links with local performance clubs.
Our sports compete in National and Regional competitions alongside County Leagues and Cups. In recent years, Collyer’s has built a healthy reputation for consistently producing successful teams and athletes, with a number of county and national representative players. Recent successes to name a few include, Netball Sussex U19 Schools League Champions; Netball Sussex U18 Schools Cup Runners Up; Football West Sussex Division 2 U19 Schools League Runners Up; Football AOC U19 South East Tier 3 Champions; Women’s Football Surrey U19 Schools League Champions, Rugby National Champions; Squash National champions.
How to enrol
To enrol students must attend our trials to be held on Tuesday 3rd and Wednesday 4th September. For further details, interested students will need to complete the Collyers Sport Application Form in as much detail as possible.
TASS
In order to develop our sporting offer further, we have recently been recognised as an accredited site for talented athletes through the ‘Talented Athlete Scholarship Scheme’ TASS, which signposts elite sports men and women to the college. If you are an elite athlete in your chosen sport and wish to apply to become a TASS athlete, please email sports@collyers.ac.uk. If you meet the initial TASS criteria we will then be in touch and send you a TASS specific application form.
