It's National Careers Week and so we thought we'd share some information for those of you interested in careers in sport that you may not have previously thought about...
Think a career in sport is only for athletes? Think again. 🏟️⚽
When we think of sports careers, we often picture the people on the pitch. But for every athlete, there is a massive team of professionals making the magic happen.
Key areas to explore:
• Science & Health: Physiotherapy, nutrition, and performance analysis.
• Business & Media: Sports journalism, digital content, and sponsorship.
• Community: Sports development officers making an impact at the grassroots level.
The sports industry is constantly evolving and it needs more than just physical talent, it needs strategic thinkers and creators. 🚀
