Why Study with JB?
We feel it is important that students on this course receive relevant work experience that will aid their employability.

The delivery of the course is split between theory, work experience off site, practical coaching delivery and training sessions on site. The course is delivered at Horncastle Town Football Club with the theory elements from the clubroom and the practical sessions on the surrounding pitches and Astroturf.
There are numerous enrichment opportunities available to students throughout the two year programme.
We have created a well-rounded programme, allowing students to achieve UCAS points, and gain a wealth of practical experience and subject knowledge.
Students can progress on to a University course or begin a career within the sporting industry. JB is committed to aiding the development of talented and passionate individuals, and will look to recruit suitable students from the course to enroll on our apprenticeship scheme, where they will work towards full time employment.
