Athletics

Athletics is a great society that has allowed me to find likeminded people throughout my time at university. The training is actually quite good, the only downside being that the uni doesn't have their own track so you have to go quite far out to Exeter Arena for training. There are a large range of both track and field events available and completions year round to get involved in! It's a very inclusive society and welcomes people of every ability.. however, I will say when it comes to socials there is, like many of jensport societies at Exeter, quite a bit alcohol culture. Not sure if this is just a university thing but I know for me and for quite a few members the club socials can be a bit offputting due to their "boozy" nature. Having said that everyone is really friendly, the training is good fun and I've met some of my best friends through althletics!

I have been part of this club for two years now and they have made university st Exeter absolutely amazing would recommend 100%
