Bachelor of Sport & Recreation

Bachelor of Business

Tama Jones is coaching the coaches thanks to his AUT studies.

Tama is a Bachelor of Sport and Recreation and Bachelor of Business conjoint degree graduate. 

He now works for Sport Northland, a regional sports trust, as the CoachForce Team Leader. This role involves looking after coaching and the CoachForce programme, a SPARC initiative, in the region. 

“In both roles I act as a manager and mentor to local coaches. I love my job and want to help Sport Northland, and its coaches, to continue developing.” 

Tama chose AUT because of its modern persona.

“I have always played a variety of sports and the Bachelor of Sport and Recreation was the obvious choice. It gave me insight into the industry before I entered the workforce, which made the transition easier.” 

“As the sports industry is using the business model more and more, having business knowledge as well is a great help.”
