Helpful Sporting Evidence
For those students that are looking to play at the highest possible level alongside their studies, we ask for them to provide as much information as possible relating to their sporting experience. Once an applicant has supplied as much sporting evidence as possible, we can then make an assessment and start informing U.K. university sport staff about their availability for recruitment. Examples of helpful sporting information include:
Video Footage
This is the most helpful tool to help UK coaches assess your ability as a player and determine how you could contribute to their university sports programme. We welcome full game footage or highlight videos.
Sporting Achievements
Evidence of any official statistics, competition/tournament results or official ranking are very welcome to help demonstrate the level of sport that you have competed at and your success to date.
References
References from current or former coaches who can comment on your sporting ability will also be welcome.
No sporting evidence? No problem, we can still help you!
We welcome applications from athletes of all sporting backgrounds and ability levels and so do U.K. university sports teams!
Whilst the above criterion makes it easier for us to assess a student’s chances to achieve a sport scholarship and play at a competitive level, it’s not a requirement to use our service. It’s common to find that most U.K. universities will enter multiple teams into competitive leagues that offer student’s the chance to play, regardless of their ability levels.
At the start of each academic year, university teams throughout the U.K. will hold a trial period that will give players the chance to find the correct standard team for their ability level. As a player moves throughout the academic year, they have the opportunity to progress up the teams based on good performances. Though equally, if a player wished to dedicate more time towards their studies and just play socially, they can progress to a lower team. U.K. university sport is very accommodating for those wishing to play at the highest level, or those simply wanting to stay involved with their preferred sport whilst in education.
If you do not have any sporting evidence, simply state this when registering on our website and a member of our team will follow up with you to learn about your ambitions. We will speak to you about what you want to study, what sport you’d like to play and how seriously you’d like to compete. From there we will build up a personalised list of potential study options for you and then begin to guide you through the application process.
You have our full support – from enquiry to departure!
We take great pride in our sport recruitment work with each of our applicants. We work to find them the best opportunities that suit their personal criteria. However, our work does not stop there.
When working with any incoming international student, we will help them with their university course application, exploring possible housing options and other helpful pre-departure advice. We will help to find you a suitable option to play your preferred sport and then ensure you have all the administration complete in order to attend your selected university.
