Here's what University of Chichester says about its Sports Therapy course.
As a sports therapist, you are an integral part of the multi-disciplinary team that is necessary to provide the best care, injury management, and rehabilitation for both sporting and non-sporting participants regardless of age and ability.
Accredited by the Society of Sports Therapists, this course has produced therapists that have continued on into a variety of careers within the sport sector for over twenty years.
The course utilises the principles of sport and exercise sciences incorporating physiological and pathological processes as you broaden and deepen your understanding of sports therapy through the academic study of sports medicine and sports science.
You will develop excellent clinical skills, sound clinical reasoning and depth of knowledge that provides you with the ability to work autonomously.
On this course you will: -Develop your understanding of the concepts of sports medicine and sports science, with a focus on physiological and pathological processes. -Learn to plan and implement appropriate independent treatment regimens for injured patients. -Gain hands-on experience by working with both injured students and staff, before moving onto working outside the university to support your learning. -Work to develop excellent clinical, examination, and assessment skills. This is an established course that has a track record of producing therapists with excellent clinical skills, sound clinical reasoning, and a depth of knowledge that provides our students with the ability to work autonomously, and in a variety of settings.

Are you thinking of applying to this university?
Before you do, it's a good idea to go to an open day. You can have a good look around campus, getting a better idea of what it's like to study there. You'll meet current students and staff and get the chance to ask them questions.
Universities will list upcoming open days on their websites. Most will also have virtual open days; these are a great alternative if you really can't get there in person. For tips on preparing for open days, check the advice section here on The Uni Guide.
