LAPS Life After Sport

Life After Sport for our members, is one of our official partners.

LIFE AFTER PROFESSIONAL SPORT ‘LAPS’

Are you now, or have you ever been involved in professional, semi-professional or full time sport? The PDPA have teamed up with LAPS to help and advise our members.

WHAT IS LAPS?

The ultimate careers resource platform offering advice, networking and job opportunities for future, current and former elite athletes. LAPS can help you decide what career will suit you best after sport, give you support and advice preparing your CV and interview technique, and put you directly in touch with employers specifically looking to recruit former sports professionals just like you.

Make the most of life after professional sport:

For many, being involved in professional or top level sport is the fulfilment of a lifelong dream. But not all sports careers can last forever; have you considered what comes next? It’s never too early, or too late, to think about your future.

Sport professionals are highly sought after by employers in a huge number of sectors. The very characteristics that have put you at the top of your sports career are the same traits employers find desirable. There are thousands of rewarding careers out there, and LAPS has been set up by sports and recruitment experts to help connect you with the right opportunities. It is an exclusive, invitation-only community designed specifically for you. And it’s absolutely FREE to use.

LAPS has been designed specifically for sports professionals. Watch interviews with people who have made the transition, find out about new careers and qualifications, and apply for jobs, all right here.

Membership is totally and 100% free for elite athletes.

Advice Section:

We cover everything from helping you decide which career may be suitable for you, how to take advantage of your sporting background to find opportunities, through to how to write a successful cover letter for your job applications.

Build your CV using the LAPS CV Builder. Watch former professional footballer Chris Birchall explain how to create a video CV. Read about what you should be doing as early as possible to plan for life after sport. And much more.

Video Interviews:

The most popular area of LAPS is video interviews with sports professionals who have successfully transitioned into new and rewarding careers.

We’ve interviewed people from a really diverse range of careers. From Police Officer to TV Presenter, and Barber to Mortgage Advisors. Whatever careers you’re considering, you can be inspired (or put off) by other athletes who have made the same career choices.

Jobs:

When you’re ready to look for a new career there are lots of places to look, but LAPS is the only place that lists jobs from companies who specifically want to recruit former elite athletes and sports professionals.

Use your LAPS CV, or upload a new one, and apply for roles directly from the Members’ Area.
