Players from the University of Warwick have been crowned the best in the country after winning an inaugural national championship.

Warwick has been named esports University of the Year and is the first University to hold the title.

Great results for our Performance Sport Rowing teams at Wallingford, Oxfordshire last weekend. Finishing 3rd in Open 8+ Band 2, which consisted of so many crews our team will undoubtedly be competing for spaces at Henley Royal Regatta.

On Thursday 12 July we were awarded two national sector awards for our participation programme at Warwick and our reshaping sport campaign in the ‘take a stand award’ in the most recent BUCS (British Universities & Colleges Sport) Conference where Universities from across the UK come together to share, discuss and honour best practice across the sector.

Lilleshall National Sports and Conferencing Centre hosted BUCS Outdoors 2018 on 16th and 17th June. A huge number of Warwick archers qualified to go to BUCS Outdoors this year and we ended up taking a team of 24. Read on to find out how it went.

BRITISH TEAM RETURNS TO WORLD CUP PODIUM AFTER 6 YEARS

This year we're launching our first TRI - Grid Challenge.

With a spot in the end of season play-offs in sight, things were getting serious at Crackley Lane.

In their sixth consecutive match decided by the scoreline 3-2, The University of Warwick/Kenilworth Squash Team produced their fourth consecutive win. This being the most impressive to date in their short history, taking down Nottingham on their own patch, who were unbeaten in nearly two years home or away, and the defending champions. The most impressive thing of all, being the manner of their victory.

On Monday 9 October, SU Sports Officer Ellie Martin officially opened the new Claycroft Activity Zone - an outdoor sports facility that features exercise and climbing equipment, trampolines, swings and more. Over the summer we worked on both this and a new water-based hockey pitch on Westwood campus, helping to make Warwick Sport's vision for Warwick as the most physically active campus community in the UK by 2020 a reality.

These two projects go hand in hand with our ongoing work to create a new Sport and Wellness Hub, which will serve as the main centre for sporting activity on campus.

Students and Staff at the University of Warwick who wish to join the Sports Centre can now become tourists in their home University gym with the UNIversal Gym Membership. It is valid with Warwick Sport Gym memberships only (starting from £225 per 12month).
