Sports Whether you want to keep fit, meet new people, take part in your favourite sport or play competitively there are plenty of sports clubs to choose from in Huddersfield. Football, rugby and netball represent some of the traditional sporting clubs that we offer, but have you ever thought about trying Hurling or Taekwondo? If you are reading this you are probably new to Huddersfield and Uni life, and only been here for a few days. Having left family, friends and familiar faces back home, you might be feeling a little lonely. A great way to overcome this feeling is to join a sports club! Choose from over 25 clubs and meet a varied range of people. Whether individual or collective, indoor or outdoor, contact or less physical, we are sure one of them will suit you. More than just meeting new friends in a chilled atmosphere, they can help you develop new skills. Having a go at something new is also a way to add a line to your CV and to make you stand from the crowd.

SPOTLIGHT on HUBA The Huddersfield University Boardriding Association is one of the University’s most long-standing societies.

Volunteering Gone are the days when volunteering just meant helping out in a charity shop. For every career there is a voluntary position that could help you gain the skills you need to get ahead in the workplace. Boost your CV, get some much needed experience, and give something back, all at the same time. You can choose to volunteer for a day at a one-off-event maybe just to see what it’s like, or for a few hours a week as a break from study, then if those idle summer months are too much to bear, you can volunteer fulltime. It’s a great way of trying something new, being constructive, adding skills to your CV, and doing something worthwhile. Most organisations which involve volunteers offer training, so you don’t need to have any qualifications to become a volunteer - just loads of enthusiasm!
96%
of volunteers say that volunteering has provided them with extra skills for life.

“Put aside preconceptions: volunteering is work experience with the added possibility that the act of choosing to be a volunteer can show even greater initiative and commitment" Mark Killingley, Senior Manager, HSBC Bank

A list of up and coming opportunities are posted on the Volunteering notice board in The Zone, first floor of the Students’ Union, or you can check online at www.huddersfieldstudent.com/volunteer for updates.
Spotlight on Sam Mallen: 3rd year Social Work student. I volunteer with the READ Book Project Huddersfield which collects old textbooks, and raises funds to ship those books to schools in Tanzania. I was telling some friends about the project, when one of them said that they didn’t see the point in trying to save the world. My response was ...
‘I don’t want to save the world, but while I’ve got some spare time on my hands I may aswell do something useful with it‘!

Varsity
The annual Varsity event sees Huddersfield face it’s old arch enemy, Bradford University, in a sporting extravaganza. A wide range of different sports teams, from rugby to tennis and football to fencing, battle it out across the pitch or court to prove which University rules supreme in the sporting stakes! It’s crazy, fun and something well worth watching.
This year the matches will be held in Huddersfield in March 2009. Make sure you get your ticket and don’t miss a treat. Look out for more details online at www.huddersfieldstudent.com

2008 Varsity Report Like lots of other Universities and based on the model of a more famous example, opposing Oxford and Cambridge, the University of Huddersfield also has its local rival. Every year the tradition of the Varsity is to compete against our local and friendly adversary Bradford University in various sports in a full day event. Organised alternatively by both institutions, the Varsity will, this year be organised and held in ‘sunny’ Huddersfield. Last year was an innovative year as we included 2 new disciplines - archery and ice hockey. This year again we hope to increase the participation of our clubs. This year the University of Huddersfield lost 6-4 against Bradford, managed to draw the rugby league game, but most importantly we won the rugby union match, which means we retain the cup for another year. Although we lost all of the teams that played performed 110% and had fun doing so, because at the end of the day, sport is supposed to be fun. Get involved, whether its joining the teams or just popping along for the day to show your support, it all counts!!! Report by Julien Boville.

Spotlight on Alton Towers... Wednesday 11th June 2008. After a slightly wet experience on the Log Flume, Claire gives her report on the Alton Towers trip! After a short journey we had arrived. First stop, food! Probably not the best idea considering we were about to climb aboard some of the most stomach churning rides known to man! We spent the day being drenched, spun, flipped, and twisted in every direction possible, going from the log flume, to Rita, then Oblivion and Nemesis, before finishing on everyone's favourite, the spinning barrels. Roll on next year!!

Spotlight on HUPS (Huddersfield University Photographic Society)
“There was a group of us into photography, but not everyone had dSLR cameras. We approached the Students’ Union about becoming an official society. We needed to nominate a president and a Treasurer and fill out a few forms; but we got a free stand at Freshers Fayre and signed up over 30 members. The SU got us some decent camera kit to experiment with, and helped us out with a trip to Chester Zoo. A few of us have since entered photo competitions and won!” Mark. President, HUPS. 2007/2008
