Fantastic opportunities to promote Sport to all students
- 25th March we are looking for students to represent Banbury and Bicester College in the Oxfordshire College Games. We have secured funding to provide coaching, equipment and hire facilities we just need to sign up more students to the following teams; netball, mixed badminton, mixed touch rugby, girls football, mens football. Students should pop and see Josie if interested. Training starts next week!
- We are also going to be asking students what other sports they may be interested in taking part in and what are their barriers to not doing them at the moment. You will see Learner services completing surveys with students over the next week or so. This is part of the research we are conducting for a bid to Sport England to be able to offer more sport opportunities to our staff, students and local community at Banbury and Bicester College and City of Oxford College.
