Today, Spartans Rugby delivered the first of its Sports Trainer courses for veterans and serving Defence members across South East Queensland.

Hosted by the Spartans in partnership with Sports Medicine Australia, the course qualified participants as Level 1 Sports Trainers - enabling them to support future Spartans activities while also contributing to community sporting clubs and events where they live.

Participants travelled to Toowoomba from Brisbane, the local region and even Bathurst in New South Wales to complete the training.

This is the first of many courses the Spartans intend to deliver for veterans and serving Defence members as we continue creating opportunities through education, qualifications and community sport.

A massive thank you to Patrick our Sports Medicine Australia instructor, for delivering such a professional and engaging course to the team.

Missed you chance to gain this qualification? The keep an eye out for our next course!!
