Partnership with University of Portsmouth

University of Portsmouth Sport

We've partnered with the University of Portsmouth Sport to help boost student employability.

The sponsorship sees Carrington West become the front of shirt sponsor for the University’s sports teams. In January 2025, our Managing Director, James Fernandes, and Marketing Director, Amanda Ansell, attended the BUCS Boxing Championship and were delighted that Portsmouth's Louis Silk was able to come out on top of a thrilling final. We're proud to sponsor local sports to foster young talent and support the next generation in reaching their full potential.

Ravelin Sports Center and Varsity Event

In March 2022, we sponsored the University's Varsity event. Carrington West also deliver educational seminars and workshops for students, ensuring that students get both on and off the field development opportunities, which is vital to their continued success in the graduate market.

​The first stage of the partnership has seen some of the University sports clubs receiving and competing in their new kits.

The new Ravelin Sports Centre opened in October 2022, which includes teaching facilities to enable us to deliver workshops and seminars focusing on key employment skills and attributes for students.

Our founders James and Simon attended the official opening in March 2023, a great honour to celebrate alongside Paralympic champion Laura Steadman MBE and Olympic medallist Declan Brooks.
