STUDENT CLUBS

STUDENT CLUBS & GETTING ACTIVE @ THE UNIVERSITY OF BRIGHTON

Whatever your game or level, the university will attempt to find a way for you to enjoy and develop your skills. It's also a great way to meet new people. 

From popular team games through to individual pursuits, our clubs and activity sessions provide opportunities for training, competition and fun. 

The activities on offer are subsidised, so make sure you make the most out of your time at the University and join a club. Perfect an existing interest or discover a new pastime. You can join one or more clubs assuming they don't clash.

All student activities are under the Panthers family. The programme previously known as Parklife has found a new home as Panthers Play.

Ways to get active can now be found in one place and under our core strands. Panthers Play denotes that activities are open to any ability and caters for those simply wanting to train or play in their chosen activity. Panthers Compete are student clubs that enter some form of competition. This could be weekly BUCS fixtures against other universities, local leagues or one off competitions. Also keep an eye out for our Campus Leagues available in Tennis, Football, Rugby Union and Netball.
