Campus Sport Leagues
For the new academic year, we are running a new 7-a-side football league! Held every Sunday from 5 pm to 10 pm during term time, our league is your chance to showcase your skills on the 3G pitch. Organised by a dedicated team, including a Football Coordinator and 6 skilled referees (3 per session), our league promises thrilling matches and unforgettable experiences.
This year, we're also introducing a Women's 7-a-side league, running parallel to the men's league. We're committed to providing an inclusive platform for all where our league offers an unmatched opportunity to immerse yourself in the world of competitive football within a friendly environment.
You can join the league as an individual where we will find a team for you or gather your friends and form your own team. Our convenient online registration via the app makes it simple to secure your spot. The action kicks off on the 8th of October with sign-ups closing on the 24th of September, so mark your calendars!
