Joining UofG Sport

In addition to any Sports Clubs we offer at the Students' Association, GSA students also have access to a lot of the same facilities and resources that University of Glasgow students do (except for competing in BUCS/SSS competitions) and can purchase:

• any UofG Sport student gym membership
• any GUSA Sports Club membership

To join UofG Sport, GSA students must use their University of Glasgow email address (@student.gla.ac.uk) and password to log in through the login page. 

All GSA students have this address, but if for whatever reason you don't know or can't access it, University of Glasgow's reception team at the Stevenson Building will be able to help. You can find it at 77 Oakfield Avenue, Glasgow G12 8LT. 

Joining a GUSA Sports Club

We have a few different Sports Clubs on offer here at the GSA Students' Association, which you can find at on our Societies web page. However, if you can't find the Club you're looking for, Glasgow University Sports Association (GUSA) may have the one for you. 

To join a GUSA club, GSA students will need:

• A full-access SPORT membership (Fitness & Wellbeing gym memberships do not include Club Sport access)
• Their UofG email address and password

Once they have these, they can log in to the GUSA website via Student Login, complete the GUSA Welcome Survey and then buy any club membership. 

Again, the Stevenson Building can help you get set up if you don't know your UofG email address and password.

Important info regarding BUCS/SSS competitions 

After joining a GUSA Sports Club, GSA students can attend all of their club's training sessions and social events. 

However, if they wish to represent the club in British Universities & Colleges Sport (BUCS) or Scottish Student Sport (SSS) competitions, they must be enrolled in one of the following joint UofG/GSA degree programmes:

• MEng/BEng/BSc Product Design and Engineering
• MEng/BEng/BSc Civil Engineering w/Architecture
• MSc Medical Visualisation & Human Anatomy
