Tresham College Nets Regional Win!

Tresham Football Academy students have had an early Christmas present, having won the East Midlands Regional Football Tournament.

The team of students from the Kettering Campus has now qualified for the Association of Colleges National Finals which will be held in April 2019 and will see the team competing against other regional winners as well as students from other nations to be crowned National Champions.

Head of Sport at Tresham College, Dan Burns said : “This is a fantastic achievement for our Football Academy students and thoroughly deserved. The commitment they have shown to their program, where they follow a structured weekly timetable that combines their studies with their football coaching and development, has resulted in this success. A number of our players are aspiring to move on to scholarships with American universities and this achievement is a great addition to their CV’s.”

Tresham College offers a Boys and a Girls Football Academy, where students can combine high level football development alongside their academic studies and compete at the highest level of college football in the UK. Aspiring football academy students can apply now for a place in September 2019 and are encouraged to attend open events to meet the coaching and teaching team and see the fantastic facilities on offer.

Tresham College has three campuses in Kettering, Wellingborough and Corby. It merged with Bedford College in August 2017 to create The Bedford College Group which is today in among the top 20 FE institutions in the UK boasting robust finances, award-winning staff and growing student numbers including apprentices and those progressing to Higher Eductaion.
