Yet again we have had another year of successful growth within sport at UEA, at all levels. From performances on the pitch, court, water, stage and saddle, to the thousands of pounds raised for numerous charities, to students trying a new sport for the first time and members becoming lifelong friends through sport, it has definitely been a year to remember.
We would like to take this opportunity to thank all sports club members and committee members for their tremendous efforts throughout the 2019/20 season. We hope you have enjoyed it as much as we have!
To those students graduating, good luck in your future endeavours and we look forward to seeing you back at the Alumni Weekends next year. To returning students, have a fantastic summer and see you soon!
