Sport and Active Lifestyle
We are committed to looking after your fitness, health and wellbeing whilst at University and we offer a variety of facilities, programmes, activities, challenges and events that cater to you.
Great facilities and 1st class support network
Whether you are a seasoned competitor, new to sport and exercise or simply just want to give something a go, then we can accommodate you.
Great facilities, passionate professionals and a first class support network to help you engage in sport at any level will help you to both settle into life at Chester and enhance your student experience.
The University of Chester recognises the importance of sport, fitness and wellbeing to its institutional mission and core values. Sport, fitness and wellbeing plays an integral part of this in ensuring that there is a pursuit of excellence, a distinctive student experience, inclusiveness and a supportive culture. We continue to develop and enhance our facilities, provision and support of sport to ensure that all students and staff are able to participate at appropriate levels to fulfil their sport and wellbeing needs and desire.
We are also home to Chester Hockey Club and Swim! By working in collaboration with the Students Union, Sport and Exercise Sciences academic teams, the Grounds and Gardens department to name a few, we aim to continue to enhance the sporting profile of the University.
