Sports Teams

Enjoy playing sport either for fun, fitness or competitively? Well Birmingham City Students' Union offers it all!

We offer a wide range of sporting activities for everyone to participate in. Not only do we offer recreational and fun sport, but for the budding Wayne Rooney's, Kelly Holmes', Freddie Flintoft's and Tanni Grey-Thompson’s we also offer competitive sport at the highest level through BUCS, the British University and Colleges Sport.

To become a member of a sports team you will need to buy membership to the specific team and either a BUCS sports card or a Non BUCS Sports card. The BUCS Sports Card covers a whole range of things including training facilities, match facilities, free transport to away games, free match day food for home games, insurance and loads more! You also get £30 off a 12 month membership and £10 off a 9 Month membership until October 31st at the Doug Ellis Sports Centre.

A BUCS sports card will cost £40 and the membership costs vary from team to team. The Non BUCS Sports Card costs £15. These can be bought from any sport club at Freshers Fair, any Students’ Union reception or in the Student Activities Centreat City North Campus.  

To see this week’s sports team fixture and results visit www.bucs.org.uk and select Birmingham City University.
