Few studies have investigated teaching and learning experiences of university sports students which is surprising considering the high annual numbers recruited to sport degree programmes and consequent non-completion rates. This study compared teaching and learning experiences of 350 first-year sport students at a post-92 English University with how they were taught at their further education institutions. Key findings showed the teaching and learning methods at university were less structured and tutor-led but with more teaching staff involved. Practical implications for developing rich modes of university provision that best support the needs and expectations of newly arrived sports students are provided.
