"We have developed a tremendous relationship with Gateshead College over the past few months and are delighted to be working with them on an ongoing basis – the fact they are getting behind the club once again on our Drive for 5 campaign is just another indicator of the tremendous support we receive,” commented Vipers GM Jaimie Longmuir.
