Spill Media Link Up With Swans

Spill Media and Swansea City Football Club have linked up as part of a Community Partnership that will see Spill Media trainees and work placements work in conjunction with the Swans.

The partnership sees Spill Media strengthen the opportunities that they offer in training and work placements, one of the main social aims of the company. As part of the community partnership, the Spill Media trainees will work closely with the Swans Media Department in providing match day coverage for their online channel, Swans Player.

Tomos Bayliss, who will be the first Spill Media trainee to take advantage of the partnership said, “I’m really looking forward to starting my placement with Spill Media this summer. I was looking to get involved with something media related in the holidays and this placement is perfect. The fact I’ll be getting to work with the Swans as well is fantastic and will be great to put on my CV.”
The link highlights the Swans continued commitment to supporting local companies and organisations such as Spill Media and will allow the work placements to gain an insight into the match day production produced by the club.

Jonathan Wilsher, media manager at Swansea City, said:
“We started working with Spill Media last season and we are delighted to strengthen this relationship for the new campaign. The Swans play an important role in the community and we share similar social aims as Spill Media. The company has been doing some fantastic work in and around the community of Ystradgynlais. As a football club we are pleased to help them to continue making a difference to the young people of the area.’’
Spill Media Production Co-ordinator Daniel Davies added, “The link between ourselves and the Swans will be a great outlet for work placements with Spill Media. The range of digital media training we offer has further been strengthened with this opportunity for trainees.”
