University Fitness Games
Third level students enrolled in universities from all over the island of Ireland will compete to see who is the fittest student in Ireland.
As a result there has been steady growth in the number of jobs in the fitness industry. Years ago physical trainers and gym instructors did not need qualifications. That’s no longer true. If you want to work as a personal trainer, a fitness instructor or a coach, you will need qualifications.
Other careers in the area include sports nutrition, sports management, community sports development.
