The Sports Career Question on the Show: What advice would you give to University Students who want to work in the sports industry?
I would advise anyone and everyone who is looking to get into the sports industry ofter to university to take up an internship, it really truly was one of the best experiences that I've ever had, you know, I was someone who was completely directionless in terms of what I was going to do after uni, and then I did this internship and it was like a path was just, you know, lights it up for me and you know, I knew where I needed to go. You know, and like I said before, it really allows you to get your feet wet, and there's no pressure, so you know, maybe you'll think that there's some pressure but really that isn't because you're not getting paid so you've got the room to learn and to make mistakes and to have you know, fun with the experience. Usually you'll probably get some form of mentoring through that which is super super valuable.
