Modern Pentathlon Club

Modern Pentathlon is an exciting and varied sport comprising running, swimming, shooting, fencing, and obstacle course racing (OCR). We’re known for our inclusive, supportive and friendly atmosphere, bringing together everyone from complete beginners to experienced pentathletes.

We run around eight training sessions each week across the five sports, alongside regular trips to OCR training venues. Our main competitions of the year are BUCS and the annual Varsity match against Oxford. Many members of our team learn most of the disciplines from scratch before going on to represent the university the same year. Alongside training, there’s also a strong social atmosphere.

We welcome undergraduates, postgraduates, and staff of all abilities, and you don’t need to attend every session to be involved. The variety of sports involved means that it is the perfect opportunity to try something new!
