Behind every successful athlete is a sports coach. Sport in the 21st century has also taken on a wider social role than its traditional remit of elite performance, and a sports coaching or physical education degree can put you in a privileged position to create real social change.
A degree from St Mary’s will prepare you for the challenges of contemporary sports coaching and encourage you to put your skills and learning into practice. St Mary’s has established links with national and local organisations: from Fulham FC and Chelsea FC, to Harlequin RFC, and London Gymnastics.
Studying physical education and sports coaching will empower you to inspire young people, adults, and communities to make the best of themselves through sport and physical activity.
