Why should take sport in a gap year
​
Well, first of all, if you’re good at sports, you want to get better at sports or you just love sport, this is a great way to spend part or all of your gap year. A sporting gap year is also valuable in a number of other ways: Help other people through sport! If you’ve got a talent for a particular sport, then maybe you’ve also got a talent for teaching other people, and for helping them to improve their quality of life through sport. You can pass on some of your knowledge and passion for sport and use it as an opportunity to genuinely help people in other areas of their lives – helping them to build confidence, improve their English or just to stay healthy and happy. And if you really put the effort in, you’ll also come out of the experience with new skills and new self-confidence of your own.
Including sport in your gap year is a great way to have fun, do something you really enjoy, help other people and even improve your own skills. It can give you confidence and new qualifications that can change your life. Just ask yourself this – if you’re a good footballer, why spend your time doing a rubbish job when you could be earning money teaching other people to play better? Use your talents and get formal recognition for them so that you can ultimately make some money out of them – and help other people in the process.
Whether you’re into rugby, football, or cricket, winter sports like skiing and snowboarding, or water sports like scuba diving, if you reckon you’ve got skills that you could share with other people, then use your gap year to get professional recognition for them. If you’re at a very basic level or a complete novice, many sporty gap years focus on playing rather than coaching.
