The team will play 4 other universities from around Scotland and Northern England, which are currently Leeds, Glasgow, Hull, and Northumbria. We train twice a week onfield throughout the season, with opportunities for weight training together in the university gym available throughout the week.
On-field times:
All kit is provided and included in the fees, as are travel expenses, insurance and league registration fees.
We are highly competitive in our division, ending the season with a winning record and making the playoffs in the 2021-22 season.
Off the pitch the team also gathers on Wednesdays for a themed social that typically ends up at WhyNot, and on Sundays at 6 o'clock to watch the NFL at our sponsor pub.
