Student Internships available

Castleford Tigers are offering voluntary student internships to physiotherapy, sports therapy and sports rehabilitation students. We are looking for dedicated and enthusiastic students to work with our various squads, starting now and lasting through the 2024 season & 2025 season.

We have full-time/daytime placements, and part-time/evening placements available. 

Why choose the Castleford Tigers RLFC Internship?

• Regular internal CPD sessions with certificates.
• 100% of our last cohort of students would recommend our internship to other students.
