Sports and Recreation

The Sports Card has now been reduced to £50 for the remainder of the 2009/10 Academic year. This entitles you to use both Fitness Gyms, listed recreational classes like Pilates, Yoga and Ragga Aerobics, and participate in the representative sports teams.

In addition to the Sport and Recreation Section we offer a 5 a side football league and outdoor activities like canoeing, climbing etc. There are further charges for this, which will be listed in the website or the information can be supplied from the Science Centre Fitness Centre reception.

The sports teams are also looking to maintain recent success, for example, the men's and women’s tennis teams and men's table tennis have won European Universities titles over the last two seasons; the women's and men’s basketball team are both playing in the top division of the English Basketball League with their home games on Saturdays being in the Science Centre.

There are plenty of opportunities to get involved in sport and recreation at the University, and the Sport and Recreation Service hope you enjoy the program of activities.

All teams will be playing under the London Mets brand for the second year. A brand that, we hope, will become associated with success in the University sector and National Leagues.
