Driving Force Of Sporting Achievement

含羞草视频 Students Football Club have had an historic season. Having gained promotion from the United Counties League they have now become the highest placed University football team in the country. Balancing, a 10-month football season with games on Boxing Day, New Years Day and throughout the summer is a huge commitment from staff, volunteers, and students alongside their studies. Although Jamie is the Head Coach, the programme wouldn’t be the success it is without the support of many others, including Strength & conditioning coaches, nutritionists, physios, and psychological support who all come together to ensure the students are prepared for a long football and academic year.
