Team Hallam Membership FAQ's

 

For those of you who are wanting to join our clubs we have designed the follow Frequently Asked Questions to clarify any worries you may have. Please do not buy a membership without asking your club committee members which one to buy or unless you know which team you have made. With the October sporting period having been free of charge to allow you to experience physical activity on campus, come November when Teams become finalised after filter sessions we will be asking for memberships to be purchased across our programme. This year is unlike any other and as a result we have changed our Membership approach to ensure we can be reactive to the volatile situation of COVID-19. The structure below will show how we will achieve this and please do go onto your Clubs Webpage and click the Join Us tab to see their options. Whether you join one of our;

Recreational Clubs to experience their activities/trips/sessions, make our Team Hallam Clubs' Development Teams or you are selected to join our Team Hallam BUCS teams who routinely train and compete in weekly fixtures, there is a membership for you within our programme. Alternatively, if you don't get selected for one of the above we have Social Sport Opportunities and Sport Leagues you can get involved with. Find out more here: https://www.shu.ac.uk/Current-students/Sport

 

If you don't know if your sport is a Recreational Club or Team Hallam Sport, you can see here: https://www.teamhallam.org/clubs/

 

Membership Structure
