Sport

Our Sports facilities include a new all-weather 5G sports field and a large Sports Centre with gym and changing facilities. We offer Sports courses at Level 2 and 3.

One of the many benefits of the sports industry is that there are potential opportunities globally and it is relatively easy to get work experience and part-time work alongside your qualification to boost your CV.  

Typically, careers in sport are on the rise as people strive for a healthier lifestyle. Jobs within this sector can include teaching and coaching, physiotherapy, nutrition, personal training, assisting with injury recovery and gym instruction. Sports courses can also lend themselves well to careers in events and event management.

Richmond upon Thames College (RuTC) has an amazing location for those interested in Sport. We're on the same site as Harlequins and Twickenham Rugby Stadium is a 5 minute walk away, making the college an attractive option for sports enthusiasts.
