 Holmesglen-Saints Sports Program

St Kilda and Holmesglen are giving students the chance to kick off their career in the sports industry.  Studying with Holmesglen and the Saints offers unprecedented access to the inner workings of an elite sporting environment.  

The Holmesglen-Saints Sports Program offers the Diploma of Sport with Diploma of Event Management at Holmesglen’s Moorabbin Campus.  This is a one-year course, and the weekly timetable features a combination of classroom-based learning, split between Holmesglen’s Moorabbin campus and the Saints’ club facilities, plus one day of integrated activities.  There is a dedicated focus on turning theory into practice, and students gain real-life experience at the AFL club, and assist with junior clinics, community development programs and even match-day experiences. Guest lecturers from the Saints will share their insights and experiences, such as their journey into the sporting industry, lessons learnt and key professional takeaways.  Students will also be given the opportunity to ask questions and interview Saints staff to enhance their learning.  

Students keen on finding out more, are encouraged to attend the Holmesglen-Saints Sports Program Open Day on Thursday 7 July 2022. Register here.
