Physical activity and sport at Cambridge are great ways to look after your physical and mental wellbeing, make friends, and compete for Cambridge. 

From football to fencing, karate to korfball, and trampoline to triathlon, over half of our clubs can be joined as a beginner. So, whether you are looking to achieve a Blue in your sport, or try something new, there’s an opportunity for everyone! Become part of the Give It A Go community, represent your College, or join over 4,000 students in becoming a member of a University sports club.  

Find out everything you need to know about how to get involved in sport at Cambridge below! 

Give it a Go

Check out our weekly timetable of fun, free, beginner-friendly activities! All equipment is provided for the sessions, and all sessions have a leader who will teach the rules and organise games. All you need to do is book via our app! 

College Sport

Inter-collegiate sport is a relaxed and informal way to try a new activity or play the sport you love at a recreationally competitive level. It is a great way to get involved with your college community, have fun, be healthy, and meet people from other colleges!

Sports Clubs

With over 70 different sports clubs that cater for all abilities and levels you will find a community right for you. If you want to represent Cambridge in a Varsity match or in the weekly Wednesday afternoon BUCS fixtures, or if you want to keep healthy, make friends and mix with people outside of their college or classes, then join a Sports Club!

Performance Sport

Elite athletes are supported through an athlete performance program, get bespoke S+C, nutrition and psychology support. Which allows our athletes to reach the highest level with our performance athletes often winning BUCS medals, representing GB at World and European Student games and some even making the Olympics!
