      You’ll have to figure that out yourself! Lots of people can find ways to combine the things they love into one job. For instance, you could be come a kinesiologist (someone who studies human movement). Or maybe you’ll find a job that involves learning about the body (like being a doctor) and you’ll pursue your sporting interests in your hobbies. Either way, it’s great to figure out what you like best and try to make sure you fit in all your likes in your life! Good Luck! 😀

      There’s lots of things you can do that combine biology and sport. When I was at school I loved biology and football and wanted to be a sports physiotherapist. It just depends which part is most important to you, the science or the sport itself! Sports science and sports medicine would be good courses for you to look into too. Just make sure you choose something that you enjoy but if it doesn’t work out then you can always try something else, like I did! 🙂

      There are loads of possibilities, either as a sports physio or coach or something like that or go down the science route and research things like how hydration affects the body. I’ve seen plenty of research going in to how sport affects the body both in water and nutritional needs.

      Good luck on your journey, I am sure it’ll be exciting
