Performance Squad

Our Performance Squad is made up of our Vice-Chancellor's Scholars and Maroon Scholarship Athletes and represents our most-talented students who are pursuing a dual career at Bristol by displaying sporting excellence alongside their studies. 

Our Performance Staff are committed to ensuring that each member of the Squad receives the individualised support and development plans that they need in order to achieve both their sporting and academic potential.

Receiving the VC scholarship and being in the performance squad has allowed me to meet likeminded individuals to share experiences and support each other throughout our dual careers as student-athletes. The performance staff have been excellent in supporting my development both on and off the pitch, with individual nutrition and sport psych sessions accelerating my growth and allowing me to perform at the highest level in my sport alongside my studies.
