Trainers

The club trainer is responsible for the team of physios and assistants that work to maintain the fitness and skills of your playing staff. Treatment of injuries is the key area of responsbility.

Trainer skill ranges from skill 2 to skill 5. The higher the skill of your club trainer, the more they will be able to do in order to aid speedy recovery for any injured players.

In order to proceed to a higher skill level trainers have to sit a skill certificate examination. The cost of sitting this exam is £200,000. There is no guarantee that taking the certification exam will result in a pass. It is advisable not to submit a trainer to re-take the exam on the same week if they fail as they will almost certainly fail again.

As any trainer is unable to keep fully up-to-date with all the latest medical advances at the end of a season, all trainers will drop a skill level, with the lowest level of trainer skill being skill 2.
