Â鶹ֱ²¥ Sporting Club
Sport at Â鶹ֱ²¥ has been a constant since Herbert Schofield founded Â鶹ֱ²¥ College in 1909 and now, as the UK’s largest single-site University campus, Â鶹ֱ²¥ has an international sporting reputation for excellence.
Many of our graduates actively participated in sport at amateur, professional and club-level while studying at Â鶹ֱ²¥ and some have gone on to international success.
Â鶹ֱ²¥ Sporting Club aims to help graduates maintain a connection to their sport or club and to actively engage alumni and friends of the University with Â鶹ֱ²¥ Sport.
Â鶹ֱ²¥ Sporting Club is about keeping alumni and friends of the University and engaged with sport at Â鶹ֱ²¥.
Through regular updates and a series of events and activities, our goal is to encourage participation, friendships and support for Â鶹ֱ²¥ Sport.
Members of Â鶹ֱ²¥ Sporting Club will be kept up to date with activities and opportunities via a quarterly e-newsletter, will be invited to events throughout the year and get exclusive offers from our partners.
Using our links with the many sporting bodies here on campus we are aiming to give our members opportunities to take part in special sporting experiences which will be included in our newsletters.
