One of my biggest achievements at College has been leading the football team as captain on multiple occasions, showing that I can take responsibility, communicate well, and guide others under pressure.

Courses Taken: Football Studies Level 3
Profession: Football Coach

My tutors at College were always ready to help answer my questions, and I found their lessons interesting and relevant. My two main tutors were Chris and Kane and thanks to their help I was able to apply to university and was offered a place. Chris has taught me a huge amount about football. If you have any questions regarding football and coaching, he is the person with all answers, as he has previously worked with a professional football club before becoming a tutor at College, and he has taught me how coaching works at the highest level.

Courses Taken: Sport Level 3
Profession: Undergraduate at Edge Hill University
Years Studied: 2016 - 2018

It was a no brainer for me, the course gave me the opportunity to focus directly on a career I wanted to pursue, as well as play football every day competing at a very high standard.

Courses Taken: Sport Level 3
Profession: Undergraduate at Leeds Beckett University
Years Studied: 2015 - 2017

I would recommend this course if you know you want a sport related career, even if you aren’t sure which area of sport specifically. The course explores many different aspects of sports and by developing an understanding of each topic you start to discover which area of sport suits you best.
