Staff Clubs

Staff/Postgraduation Badminton Club

The Club is open to all staff and postgratuates of any standard. It meets weekly for 50 weeks a year on Wednesdays from 8-10pm in the main hall at the sports centre. Membership is currently £35 per year, at less than £3 per casual session it is a real bargain! Attendance at the club does not require Sports Centre Membership. There is no need to find someone to play with as a playing order system operates. The atmosphere is friendly and easy going. Come along for a free trial session any Wednesday

Angling Club

There has been an active club on campus ever since the lake was dug, well actually since the lake was stocked with fish! Despite the dirty appearance of the water, the lake provides ample reward for the patient angler.
