Cara achieved First Class Honours in Physical Education and Sports Coaching Studies BSc (Hons), alongside playing rugby in the Premiership with ²ÝÁñÉçÇøµØÖ· Warriors.   
“I am delighted that all the hard work has paid off,” said Cara. “I chose the ²ÝÁñÉçÇøµØÖ· for the location, due to playing professional rugby for ²ÝÁñÉçÇøµØÖ· Warriors alongside my degree."
"When coming to visit the open day I loved the atmosphere here, how the University wasn’t too spread out and was close knit. I am so glad I chose to do my undergraduate at ²ÝÁñÉçÇøµØÖ· and wouldn’t have wanted to change a thing.” 
“Throughout my time at ²ÝÁñÉçÇøµØÖ· I have done lots of volunteering, from coaching at Dines Green Community Centre introducing kids to rugby, helping out at ²ÝÁñÉçÇøµØÖ· Warriors HUGBY team (blind rugby) and throwing myself in to extra school teaching placements. All of these things helped me to achieve the Silver ²ÝÁñÉçÇøµØÖ· Award, and I am currently aiming for Gold while completing my PGCE.” 
Cara, who has been, and continues to be, part of the University’s Sports Scholarship programme, is now studying for a Postgraduate Certificate in Education (PGCE) in Physical Education. “My long-term goal is to be successful PE teacher,” she said.
