Hall sports leagues (IMS)

Our Hall sports leagues are an ideal way to get to know your new hall mates and stay active right here on campus. They are part of our hugely popular intramural sports leagues (IMS) programme and offer weekly netball and football leagues as well as one-off events just for students living in University-owned Halls of Residence.

Compete here on campus

Part of our popular intramural sports programme, we offer weekly Halls IMS leagues for football and netball - with all matches played on campus. We run a series of one-off events throughout the year too, starting off with our Hall Netball and 7-a-side Football tournaments.

Don't forget, you can also play with your course or a society team or with a group of friends in our central IMS leagues - we offer football, netball as well as 10 other sports. 

How do I find a team to play with?

Our Halls teams are all led by students in halls - so if you would like to play football or netball, speak to your fellow hall mates to get your teams together! Once ready, please contact our Football or Netball reps.

Please note, Hall Sport leagues and tournaments are for students currently living in a University Hall of Residence. If you are living in other accommodation / at home, or would like to play one of the ten other sports offered in the Intramural sport programme, please click here

I'm part of a team - what do I need to do next?

Once you've joined your team, you will need to register for the IMS app ahead of your first game. If you have played in previous years, you will still need to do this for the 2024/25 season.

This will allow you to view your fixtures and results as well as ensure you have access to facilities for your games. Once you've downloaded the app, register your details and click to join the 2024/25 community for your sport.

Badminton, Table Tennis and Squash only:

If you are playing in our badminton, table tennis or squash leagues, then you will also need UoN sport and fitness membership, which you can purchase here or an Active Living package. This is not required for our other leagues.
