All of our clubs and societies are hugely welcoming and take a wide range of abilities- it doesn’t matter if you’ve played a sport all your life or you want to try something completely new, we’ve got something for everyone! 

Make sure to head to the Sports Fair to check out all of our clubs and societies, see what other sporting opportunities you can get involved in, sign up for taster sessions and ask any questions you may have!
