A Season of Fun Sport Events!
As you'll know by know (as you're probably an ardent reader of SRUCSA News) Scottish Student Sports (SSS) organise well over 100 sport events and competitions a year! British University and College Sports (BUCS) do so too. And best of all, this very Students' Association subscribes to both organisations which means that you can have an incredibly sporty student life.
How to take part? Well, please take a note of all the deadlines because some are lapsing soon. Then, contact Jeroen.Herk@sruc.ac.uk (he's our Active Campus Coordinator) to tell him you'd like to participate. He'll send you some details and discuss funding and voila... a couple of weeks later you'll find yourself feeling victorious with a medal around your neck, or just happy because you made some new mates.
