Varsity was once again hosted at Greenwich University Avery Hill campus and the turnout for both sports teams and supporters was great. The day was filled with excitement, cheering fans, hardworking student athletes and great food at food trucks Smokey Bites and John the Greek. With 17 degrees and blue skies, hundreds of students enjoyed the games and events put on by our Arts SU team.

Our sports clubs train in external venues across London and include thousands of students from all colleges at UAL. Within our 25 clubs, 11 compete in Varsity. It is amazing to see the hard work our students put in all year long in their BUCS and LUSL leagues, and it is always great to see them come together for what is arguably the most important game of the year: Varsity!

Could March 2027 be the year of the 7th win?!
