AoC Sport is delighted to announce the final selection for the 2021/22 AoC Sport England Colleges men’s and women’s football teams. The Phase One trials were held in October at Bishop Burton College, Newcastle-under-Lyme College, Oaklands College and SGS College. More than 400 players were nominated from nearly 100 organisations across the country.
