Overview

Community Football Coaching And Development is offered widely in the UK, so the useful comparison is between departments rather than between countries. It is a one year foundation course, the year before an undergraduate degree begins.

Teaching in Sport and Exercise Sciences covers testing and data analysis, which is where most graduate roles now sit.

Applications open around a year ahead of the intake. Getting the documents together early is what keeps the September date realistic.
