Thank you very much to both of you for the encoragement. Im def not giving up cos im planning to move to oz soon in a few yrs and sports is where i wanna be. Ive grown to love it so much in my degree its become my passion now.
I am still trying and I did use the "I will work for free!" quote in a number of occassions actually all of them cos i seriously didnt even think i would get money cos im solely after the experience.
I am venturing to diff sports now so lets see how it goes
hopefully something will come up
From experience: any ideas which sport is easiest to get the free voluntary work experience?
thanks so much your help is much appreciated

Even if you just run the water out there...
Are you offering to run for free?
What are the answers they are giving you?
I would say something like this..."Hi, my name is PJ and i am a physio in training. Would your club be interested in having me work there for free doing pre-match rub-downs, taping and running the water?"
Keep it simple. If that doesn't work, approach players who you see strapped up and
ask them if they would like someone to strap them - they just have to supply the tape.
Otherwise, join a club, be on a team and become the default physio that way! I have done that before!!
Good luck
