The STAPS degree at Avignon University is a multi-faceted course and requires scientific as well as literary skills.

Thus, it is advisable to be curious and serious. But you must also be a sportsman. In all sports professions, legitimacy and competence are based on an honourable sporting experience. Although it is not necessary to be a top-level sportsman, it is essential to have a genuine interest in sport in general, and a very regular practice of at least one activity.
