We offer opportunities for players of all skill levels, competing in BUCS Football and Futsal. Our 1st teams in both football and futsal offer more experienced players a chance to compete in high standard leagues.
After an impressive season last year our futsal firsts won promotion and will be playing in the BUCS Prem North for the 24/25 season while football firsts look to build on last season in the Midlands Tier 2 under coach Mark Russell.
Our 2nd teams open up playing opportunities to those with less or no experience.
The seconds were promoted to BUCS last year due to their tremendous success and remains a key focus as we nurture their growth under the watchful eye of Tyler Denson.
We also welcome players who want to train but not necessarily play matches, offering intrasquad friendlies, tournaments, and support for those looking to build confidence. Additionally, there are plenty of social opportunities, including laser tag and bowling!

If you're not sure whether we're the club for you why not come down to meet us all and try out a handful of training sessions at our give it a go sessions.

If you decide we're the team for you after attending the give it a go sessions you'll need to buy a membership.
Every student must have a Union Pass which is £20, before they can purchase a society membership.
Our society membership fee is £75. This covers essential club costs such as coaches, pitch hire, kit, equipment, travel and referees for all four teams (two BUCS futsal, two BUCS football).
If you wish to join later in the year, from January onwards, this fee is reduced to £40 for the second half of the season.
We also offer a £40 training-only membership for those undecided about playing or who want to build confidence. If you later decide to join a team, you can easily upgrade to a full membership by topping up the fee.
If you have any questions or you’re interested in joining us, please connect with us through our Facebook group (linked on the right) and remember to follow us on Instagram and X. This is the best way to stay informed!
