Please Note

You MUST become a Sports Union registered member before you join any club(s).
Unless you are a member of the Centre for Sport and Recreation, club members will also have to pay a fee to use the indoor sports facilities such as the swimming pool, gym and sports hall. Go to the CSR website for further information and how to join.
The SU subsidises clubs activities, however on occassion members may have to contribute towards the costs of taking part. For instance (for safety reasons) Muay Thai / Kickboxing must have a coach present and so members must contribute towards this, and to play football at Stepps, if you take the bus it will cost you about £1.50. Clubs should tell you in advance if there are specific costs for a given session, so make sure you find out all the information before signing up!
