Experience Days

Delivered at iconic sporting facilities, our applied education experience day is designed to inspire and engage students of all levels studying health and sport-related courses.
Our experience days offer the opportunity to timetable your own day, depending on the age and course discipline of your group. Types of sessions include:
- Gym-based strength and conditioning
- Pitch based conditioning with GPS monitoring
- Heat and altitude chamber testing and conditioning
- Performance psychology workshops
- Nutrition theory and practical sessions
- Hydrotherapy recovery sessions
- Physiotherapy case study scenarios
Students will also have the opportunity to undertake a range of contemporary methods of data collection relating to the physical capability of an athlete using equipment and facilities commonly used in elite sporting environments.
“Thanks for arranging the experience day at Oriam for our year 3rd-year students on the Physiology & Sports Science course. We found it highly beneficial to get them out together as a group into an elite facility. The students took a lot away from the day and found it extremely useful.”
“The experience provided to the students was an excellent example of sports science in practice, demonstrating clearly how the inter-disciplinary teams assess, liaise and programme for an injured athlete to return to play post-injury. There was clear guidance of how the team used evidence-based practice to support this journey for the athlete and gave the students a first hand experience of how to apply their theoretical degree knowledge in an elite environment.”
“It was a pleasure to work with Game Changer Performance. We involved 40 of our year 5 to year 8 boys in learning about Sport Psychology and Goal Setting, both of which the boys really enjoyed. The onsite session at school was perfectly adapted to our boys and was wonderfully interactive. This will help evolve our ‘More Able Sportsman’ program.”
“The PE staff and sports teams at St Mary’s Calne have relished the dynamic, thought-provoking and practical delivery of GCP’s sports psychology sessions onsite at school. It was relevant and appropriate, and the girls have begun to apply new techniques and strategies to enhance their performance both in training and in matches.”
