They have regular training and compete in the BUCS league. I\u00a0am playing basketball on the women\u2019s second team and I\u00a0really enjoyed this season. It all started with trials during Fresher\u2019s Week, which were kind of scary, but I\u00a0was really happy when I\u00a0made it on the team! We had training every week and a\u00a0game almost every Wednesday. Most students don\u2019t have lectures on Wednesday afternoons, which is great because you don\u2019t miss a\u00a0lecture when you have a\u00a0game and other people can come and support as well! My team was great this year, we won the league and also the cup. We became very good friends and had many socials, where we were making pancakes, eating pizza and just having fun, talking or going out. We also had a\u00a0Christmas meal before the Christmas holiday and then the end of the season Presentation and Awards night, where the best players were awarded.<\/p>\n<p>Playing sports at the university is a\u00a0great experience and I\u00a0would definitely recommend it to everyone. I have\u00a0met so many great people through playing basketball and we always have so much fun during the training, games and socials. It creates unforgettable memories and that\u2019s why I\u00a0am very excited for the next season!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Loughborough is a very sporty university with amazing sporting facilities (but don\u2019t worry if you don\u2019t play sports, I know many people that don\u2019t like sports at all, but still enjoy their time here, because there are many other things you can do!).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":542,"featured_media":3187,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_exactmetrics_skip_tracking":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_active":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_note":"","_exactmetrics_sitenote_category":0,"lboro_blog_alternative_thumbnail_image":"","footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3182","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-business-economics"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Participating in Sports at Loughborough - Student Life<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Simona talks about the three main sport opportunities to get involved with at Loughborough.
