Sport and Leisure Professional Development

We believe that “physical fitness is not only one of the most important keys to a healthy body, it is the basis of dynamic and creative intellectual activity” (John F Kennedy).

Sports and physical activity are vital within our community to encourage individuals to engage in team work, strategic thinking, fair play, and social interaction. It gives people the desire to be competitive, plan goals and achieve personal objectives. It is crucial to social inclusion.

Our goal is to build a workforce of community sport and active leisure experts that seek to meet the physical, emotional and mental health needs of those they care for and ultimately to have a positive impact in their community. We desire to support our learners to be confident, creative and ambitious, and to be courageous by setting stretching goals and not accepting the status quo – It’s about going above and beyond!
