What is BUCS?
British Universities & College Sport host inter-university sporting competitions throughout the year. Universities from across the country get involved and compete against each other across a wide range of diverse sports.
Unfortunately, most BUCS competitions are currently postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. BUCS are reviewing this and hope to resume some activities as soon as possible.
