Definitely a sports related degree if you want to go down the University pathway. There are plenty of sports development degrees around now which are tailor made for this career path.

I did a Sport and Exercise Science degree because when I was doing my A-levels I didn’t know what area of sport I wanted to work in, just that I wanted to work in sport.

Whilst at University I volunteered to be treasurer and then Chair of the Sports Club I was a member of, and got into coaching and developing the club. This gave me a taste for sports development and I pursued a career in that field.
