Bridgwater College have purchased their first official mixed volleyball kit through their partnership with EDF Energy. The kit was provided by EDF from the activities of Hinkley Point B's 2014 sponsorship and donations committee.

The Bridgwater College mixed volleyball team is made up of students from across the college, including those studying Forensic Science, A levels, ESOL and Public Services. The team train regularly on Monday after college and will now look professional in their new kit when competing at matches, festivals and AoC regional and national events. 

Chris Walder, Continuous Improvement Manager for Hinkley Point B said,

“On behalf of EDF Energy, it gives us great pleasure in sponsoring the college’s first mixed volleyball team, and it enables us to continue the partnership we have with Bridgwater College. I wish the volleyball team every success in the future.”

Jason Gunningham, Head of Department for Sport, Outdoor Education and Public Services at Bridgwater College said,

“It is great to work in partnership with EDF and so positive to see that the organisation are supporting the healthy lifestyles of our students. This sponsorship will allow a wide range of students to participate in volleyball and look professional when competing in fixtures and competitions. We look forward to developing our relationship with EDF in the future.”
