Celebrating at Sports Ball 2023

Events

Over the course of the year our clubs and teams are invited to take part in various events, these include two Varsity competitions, Freshers Fair and Sports Ball.

The two varsity events include one at the very beginning of the sporting year against York St John University and one at the end against local rivals Teesside University.

These two events are both an important part of the sporting calendar and are a great opportunity for students to enjoy some friendly competition outside of the usual BUCS competition, as well as claiming bragging rights!

Freshers' Fair helps recruit new and returning students for sports clubs while our annual Sports Ball recognises the achievements of our teams and members across the academic year.
