Performance Sport

Northumbria’s performance sport teams compete in BUCS (British Universities & Colleges Sport) - the premier sporting competition for students across the UK - across many sports.

In our Performance Programme we develop student athletes at every level by delivering world class coaching, support services and financial assistance. We have passionate coaches and amazing facilities that allow us to get the very best out of our athletes. Discover More >

Even if you don’t see yourself as a player you can still get involved by supporting the teams on a Wednesday at Sport Central!
