I have studied at the Warrior Sports College for a total of three years and I am now into my fourth. I took the vocational route in school and attended the academy one day per week over two years and completed a BTEC Level 2 in Sport. As this is a nationally recognised qualification, last year it helped me progress onto the Level 2 Diploma in Sport and Active Leisure. I am now qualified at level 2 as a Gym Instructor, Circuit Trainer and Sports Coach, all qualifications that will help me get a job in the future. After completing this course I applied and was accepted for a place with Warriors Education for the Level 3 Advanced Diploma in Sports Performance & Excellence. We started in September 13 and I am now close to completing my fourth Unit, the course is excellent and I know for what I want to achieve in the future, this course will help along to the path to a successful career in the fitness industry. At the Sports College, it is not just class work, if you enjoy rugby then you have the opportunity to join play for the successful Warriors Rugby League Performance Squad against other colleges in the league and cup, I am proud to say that I am part of this squad now. We each have our own responsibilities in the team, I play full back and everyone pulls together to build a good bond throughout the whole squad. We train twice a week with our academy coaches and conditioner, outside of the games day and focus on fitness, gym work, ball work and team runs. I am really enjoying my time here at the Warriors Sports College and would recommend their courses to anyone if they love sport, learning new things and playing rugby THOMAS MARSH Hi I am Thomas Marsh and I am currently on my 2nd year of study with Warriors Education. I attended Warriors Sports College during my school years 10 and 11, were I completed a Level 2 BTEC Sports course. I really enjoyed the atmosphere at the academy, so for that reason after leaving school I enrolled on the Warriors ‘Level 2 Diploma in Sport & Active Leisure’. The qualifications I achieved through the course were a L2 fitness instructor, L2 circuit trainer and L2 sport coach. That course lasted one year and was a great way to gain experience in what I would like to do as a career, which is become a sports coach or a fitness instructor. During the L2 course the tutors were really friendly and supportive, allowing us to enjoy our time at the academy and build a good bond between the students in our group, we could also speak to them about serious matters if needed. My time on Level 2 has really helped me with coping with work I now do on my BTEC Level 3 Advanced Diploma in Sport, for which I enrolled and started in September 13. I am enjoying BTEC Level 3 Advanced Diploma in Sport, I have a really good tutor who helps everyone with understanding the work and assessments, but also supports me when I need it.
