Trevor Humphreys, NULC Academy of Sport Manager, said: "We're delighted that students from the College's Academy of Sport have been recognised for their sporting success.  Natalie and Lucy are two very bright stars from the Academy and strive to achieve the best, so for them to be recognised for their hard work and achievement is great."

Trevor continued: "Both the College and the students have worked extremely hard this year to ensure that Newcastle-under-Lyme College is one of the best colleges for Sport in the West Midlands."
