Model answer

Dear Sir/Madam,

I am a 21-year-old student and I am studying Sports Coaching Science at St Mary's University. I have
been studying there for the past three years. I am writing to ask if there are any part-time job vacancies at
your football club.

I really enjoy sport, and my areas of particular interest and experience are Football, Rugby and Cricket. I
have had some experience of coaching for these sports over the past three years that I have been at the
University. Last year, I worked in the holidays at a football club in my own country. I will be able to provide
references from this summer job and also from my teachers at the university.

I would prefer to work in the evenings and at the weekends, as I have classes during the daytime, and I
can start from the beginning of November.

I look forward to hearing from you in the near future.

Yours faithfully,
Adam Lawerence
