Good morning
Hope everyone is well? I believe that this network has been really helpful for me in the last few years, gaining some great contacts and reading some great articles. But I need some help. I feel a little greedy asking as I have gained some fantastic experience in the last year working with some amazing people. However, during my military career I recognised that experience was vital to deal any problems that arose as quickly as possible.
I am in my final year of my degree and graduate this year. I am currently volunteering as a strength and conditioning intern at Ipswich Town FC which has been amazing and definitely the direction I wish to pursue. I have also gained experience in rehabilitation instructor working with NHS patients with hip, knee, back and shoulder problems. This has helped me understand the basic rehabilitation process at a lower level and in a more controlled environment, whilst experiencing this process in professional sports in a more dynamic environment where the process is more demanding at Ipswich Town FC.
However, I believe that we can never have enough experience and each sport offers different ideas and experiences that could be shared. I believe that each sport in terms of strength and conditioning are at different levels with some sports embracing the S & C culture more than others.
In the period after my final exams and my graduation, I want to volunteer in a different sport discipline looking at strength and conditioning before embarking onto my new chosen career.
I hope to gain as much diverse experience as possible giving me a wider knowledge in the field of strength and conditioning that I can use in the future. If anyone can help or you know someone who can help it would be much appreciated.
Thank you in advance.
