What dispensation could the fire service offer though? They understandably don't want an active trainee breaking something. And equally Elliott has the rest of his life to think about; he doesn't want to eff up the start of his career getting injured in his training phase. Selfishly of course, it would be good.
To be fair, as I understand it the fire service has no problem with him playing as a firefighter, it's the risk to an injury which may cause him to miss his training. Basic training, seems not to be an on-going thing but something that is done in blocks with largish gaps between. IF he were to get a serious injury during this period it would throw his induction training back maybe several months, so it's not really an unfair imposition.
