LMI for All
I’ve been really enjoying studying Sport here.
My lecturers are very supportive and I now love sports that I didn’t really enjoy before I came to College.
The course has taught me how to be a great team player and a well-rounded confident individual.

I chose to come to the Junior College because I think it will benefit me later in life and help me get into the industry I’m passionate about.
I am really passionate about sport, so having the opportunity to focus on just that one specialism will help me get ahead in the future.
