You sort the team, we’ll sort the league!
Last year we had over 200 teams taking part in our leagues, competing across sports from 5-a-side football to 7-a-side netball.
What are Social Leagues?
Our leagues are a great way to play competitively with friends each week either on campus or at Sports Park Weetwood. The majority of our leagues run on a semester-by-semester basis, providing the perfect opportunity to get involved throughout the year. So if you’re not successful in topping the league in semester one, there’s still plenty of time to try in semester two.
Teams competing in our leagues also have the chance to reach the play offs and be crowned semester champions. This means your team may end up representing the University in the annual Social Varsity event against Leeds Beckett University, where we are the current champions!
