How to join

We run taster sessions for both men and women during Welcome Week at the start of the academic year. Sign up is not required, so please feel free to come along.

Fees to join are £130 for the year. Memberships purchased at any point during the academic year are only valid until the end of term 3.

Please keep an eye on our social media accounts for more details closer to the time, or feel free to drop us an email if you have any questions!

All players who represent the club in BUCS will need to buy playing shirt, shorts when they join (the cost of the shirt is subsidised by the department), which will then be theirs to keep. Lacrosse equipment will be loaned from the club for a period of a season. These items are all purchasable from Clifton Sports Hub.

We offer bursaries for talented lacrosse players. We welcome applications from all players, which will then be assessed for suitability for a scholarship award.
