Sheffield Sport in Colleges (SSIC) is a newly established organisation that began in October, 2008. We work with the further education colleges across Sheffield to increase the development of college based enrichment activities through greater participation in sport (including volunteering and leadership), college competition and links with clubs and other sport providers in the wider community.
