Behind the Scenes at Plymouth Argyle

Our Year 8 High Performing Athletes had an incredible opportunity to visit Plymouth Argyle Football Club for a bespoke behind-the-scenes tour led by South Dartmoor alumni Charlie, now a First Team Performance Analyst with the club.

Charlie studied GCSE PE here at South Dartmoor before progressing to Health, Fitness and Sports Science at SDCC Sixth Form and later university, where his journey into elite sport began.

Students enjoyed exclusive access to areas including the stadium, pitch, analyst box, dugouts, boot room, changing rooms, kit room, training pitches and more! They even had the chance to touch the hallowed turf at Home Park.

It was an inspiring experience that opened students’ eyes to the world of professional sport and the many careers it offers. Huge thanks to Charlie and Plymouth Argyle FC for providing such a memorable and motivating day! As ever, our students were an absolute pleasure and a credit to South Dartmoor.
