At the start of my time at SMB College Group, going from being home all the time and than moving to away from home 5 days a week was challenging for me but everyone was in the same situation which made it a lot easier. However it also meant I got to focus on rugby and my course.
The DiSE qualification helped me a lot with my rugby. I started to look at how to improve my game both on and off the field. Such as nutrition, sleep and communication with others around me. I enjoyed the Psychology units as they made me think about the other side of my game. I think my experiences have 100% changed the way I approach Rugby, I don’t think I could of improved as a rugby player without such knowledge and reflective practice.
