The anatomy and physiology modules on my course perfectly prepared me for my placement, giving me a thorough understanding of the mechanical and structural workings of the human body.
During my placement I worked with a range of junior athletes, supported by people working at the top of the industry. Learning directly from those leading the direction and impact of the field was an invaluable and inspiring experience.
The placement was invaluable in providing me with first-hand experience in a professional environment, building my confidence and developing my leadership skills, but also helped me to confirm my desire to pursue a career in football sport science.
