SPORTS CLUBS & SOCIETIES AT ULU
Anybody from any constituent college or institute of the University of London is eligible to join the Sports teams or Societies at ULU.Whether you are a student from one of the bigger colleges such as Kings or Imperial; or whether you are a student at one of the smaller colleges or institutes such as Heythrop or the Royal Academy of Music. It is a tremendous way to meet and socialise with students from all across London, that you may not have otherwise met! The majority of the Sports Clubs that ULU offer are less mainstream than you may find in one of the constituent colleges of the University of London, such as Polo, Sailing or Lacrosse. Other ULU sports exist to promote excellence within their sport such as Rowing, Hockey and Volleyball. In each case they field teams that are supplementary to the college teams. These clubs offer specialist support to athletes who may not necessarily have the required services available at their own colleges, and compete at a high regional, national, or even international level. ULU also provides the ULU intercollegiate Leagues and Cups. These provide a competitive platform for the constituent colleges to compete against each other, and settle some scores on the pitch with rival colleges! There is also a broad range of Societies available at ULU from mountaineering to Salsa, or from Gamesoc to Jazz (Big Band!) The ULU societies are able to and are required to bring students from the different Colleges together, to promote and to develop their interests with like minded students from all over London. Not only do ULU societies allow you to broaden your circle of friends, they are also a way to experience a wider range of Cultures that you may not be able to experience in your own college. Many of the Clubs and Societies have national or even international representation, but don’t let that scare you off... Everyone who is part of a particular club or society all have that one thing in common, they all share the same interest as you! All sports clubs and societies at ULU are student led and student run. Training for Presidents and Treasurers are mandatory at the beginning of the year to make sure that the committee members have the necessary skills to run each club or society as well as possible. This years’ Freshers’ Fayre will be held in the ULU building on Friday 6th October 2006, so you can meet the clubs for yourself, and get involved in ULU!
