Being a sports Ed is a lot of fun and I’m excited to be a part of getting more people involved and prove you don’t need to be naturally sporty to do it

I chose to do sports Education as I have a passion for sports and loved the opportunity to be able to learn new skills to pass on to other girls in my county. The Sports Educators programme has given me the skills to develop other girls into enjoying sports and wanting to join local teams. I have also gained qualifications to boost my CV and extra to discuss in my interviews. Most importantly I have gained amazing friendships along my Sports Journey.
