This is a brilliant way to meet English students and of course practise your English!

To join, you need to became an 'Associate Member' of the University Union, which is very simple.

  1. Register with the Students' Union http://www.ubu.org.uk/
  2. Click on the sport or activity you are interested in.
  3. When you join you will automatically be asked to become an Associate Member, currently £25 per year.

You may have to pay an extra fee for some clubs and societies if you need to use the sports centre, this is normally about £5 each time you go. If you join a sports club you will also need AU Membership (insurance) which costs £30. You cannot play for the university during week games, only weekends as the universities have strict rules. You can train during the week and of course make loads of new friends!
