Thats (allegedly) the planned way ahead , civilian 'leisure centre' management of facilities. Formally trained section 'pt reps', extra duties to main trade so maybe 2 or 3 on a shift to do fitness test prep.

Specialist quals for pji (why do the RAF still do that?? ), exped leaders and remedial phys ed.
