Hull FC’s Centre of Excellence will be hosting three open days throughout August for students interested in joining the club’s rugby, sports and education programmes for the 2021/22 academic year.
The Centre of Excellence has been met with an influx of rugby students applying for our various courses for the upcoming academic year, with our open days being a perfect opportunity to see what we have on offer.
And it’s not just rugby places too, despite being the first choice in the region for aspiring rugby league players; the programmes also offer opportunities for participants of other sports, including those with an interest in working in sport, sports coaching, personal training and beyond – both male and female students, aged 16-19.
Based at the newly established Centre of Excellence West Campus on Pickering Road, the college welcomes all new applicants to attend open days on August 10th, 17th, and 24th, to gain an insight into the facilities and courses available, and to chat to our tutors about what we can offer potential new students.
Whether you’re interested in becoming a pro rugby player, sports coach, physiotherapist or strength and conditioner, Hull FC College has a team of experts across the entire sporting industry to assist you in achieving your dreams.
With the opportunity to learn, work and play as a part of the new Centre of Excellence, the balance between theory and practical activities is ideal for students to develop knowledge and experience within the sports industry.
It is also directly aligned to the club’s rugby development pathway from grassroots to first-team, giving students the opportunity to pursue a professional rugby career if they wish – with both elite and recreational playing opportunities available.
