[Success Series] Ben Harper - Internship To Olympic Games: How To Make A Career In Pro Sport

In this special guest podcast I was joined by current lead physiotherapist for the Great Britain Olympic Taekwondo team, Ben Harper. Prior to his current role in Olympic sport Ben has been involved in professional rugby union and rugby league, most noticeably with the Leeds Rhinos, Castleford Tigers and the Huddersfield Giants, the later where he was the Head of Physiotherapy and Rehab. He also spent time touring with the West End cast of ‘Dirty Dancing,’ has worked internationally in rugby with both England and Jamaica, whilst he also runs his own successful private practice. Ben spoke about his journey after graduating and how he overcame certain challenges that could have halted his dream of working in professional sport. He shares many great tips and advice that you will be able to take on board as a therapy student or new grad to help you take your own first steps toward a career working in professional sport.
