In this episode of All About Apprenticeships, we're lifting the lid on apprenticeships in proferssional sport. Careers in professional sport are notoriously short - so how can apprenticeships prepare athletes for life after sport and what role do they play in helping young sporting stars stay on top of their game?

Joining host Georgie Frost for this one are Liam Hurt, who played professional cricket for Lancashire and Derbyshire, but is now pursuing a new career in plumbing; Tye Raymont, who is in his first year as a professional rugby player at Sale Sharks - alongside his rugby he’s doing a business management apprenticeship; and Andrew Jibson, the assistant academy manager at Sale Sharks.
