About SU Sport


Sport is an important part of student life. A great way to keep active and healthy, develop personal skills whilst making lifelong friends.

Sport is an important part of student life at the University of Bath, with many students becoming involved with some aspect of student sport during their time at the University. It is a great means by which to keep active and healthy, develop personal skills through the management of a team or club, and also as a way to make friends that could last a life time.

SU Sport

SU Sport is the branch of the Students' Union that co-ordinates all aspects of student sport. With a team of staff, elected Sports Officer and the Sports Executive Committee all working to make student sport the best it can possibly be.

There are a range of opportunities to get involved in student sport, you could join any of our 53 sports clubs to play competitively or recreationally. We also offer a social sport programme FREE to all students - check out Bath Active for more information on this. 

SU Sport can be identified by the Sports Crest which is taken from the main University of Bath Coat of Arms. When students compete, they do so playing under this crest as representatives of both the Students’ Union and University.

Sport Officer

Your Sport Officer has to campaign to be elected into position each year in the SU Officer elections to oversee the running of SU Sport

Working closely with the area staff, it is their job to drive the development of the area, support our sports clubs and represent the student body on all things sport to the University and the Department of Sport Development and Recreation.

POLLY HAWKER – HEAD OF ACTIVITIES

About me: I've been part of the University family for a loooooong time, throughout the years I worked in the Sports Department where I was mainly involved in large events and overseeing pre-season training for international rugby teams. When I joined the fabulous SU I managed a small yet efficient Sports and Societies team, now our team has grown and under the Activities umbrella we have, SU Sport, societies, Arts and Volunteering, as Head of Activities my role is to support student officers and staff in the delivery of the best possible offer we can provide.
