Are you interested in sports therapy in football? Well, now is your chance to do something about it as Wiltshire County FA in conjunction with New College invites applications from all individuals and Clubs who are interested in obtaining the 1st4sport Level 2 Certificate in the Management and Treatment of Injuries.

The knowledge gained will enable candidates to develop an understanding of anatomy, The Code of Ethics for Therapy, pathology and recognition of injuries, basic treatment and management of injuries and injury prevention. The skills acquired in the context of football may be transferable to many field-based team sports.
The 1st4sport Level 2 Certificate in the Management and Treatment of Injuries Course – will be held at Greendown School, Swindon starting on Thursday 4th October 2010 from 1830 - 2130 and then Sundays 14th, 21st and 28th October from 0900 – 1600.
