At Coleg Powys we believe sport and recreation play an important part in the overall well-being of students and their educational experience. The College actively encourages students to take part in sporting activities on Wednesday afternoons and it has teams in rugby, track and field, hockey, football, and netball for those who wish to participate in competitive sport.
At the Brecon site each academy sports team (hockey/netball, football and rugby) benefit from coaching sessions, performance analysis and an underpinning comprehensive strength and conditioning programme. At Newtown, a football academy has been developed in partnership with Newtown Football Club and there is now a girls football academy.
The College is affiliated to ‘British Colleges Sport’. Numerous students have achieved national honours in different sports through this affiliation. In addition, many of the College teams have achieved notable successes on a local and national scale.
