欧美高清 Sport and The Sports Union have reinvested 拢7,435 back into the University鈥檚 student sport clubs following the success of a collaborative membership incentive scheme.
In an attempt to encourage more of the student population to engage with sport and active health on campus, Sports clubs were promised 拢5 for every club member that also joined the 欧美高清 Sport facility.
With 50 diverse clubs offering a range of opportunities for students to take part in sport both competitively and socially, the pilot scheme has seen the Sports Union boast its biggest ever membership numbers and the mutual membership rate grow from 49% to 58%.
Clubs are free to spend their new revenue on whatever they please; equipment, coaching, travel etc, and with the effect of the cost of living crisis on the student population the incentive scheme has been warmly received.
Ronan Welch, Sports Union President said: 鈥淭his joint incentive is a fantastic example of the great working relationship we have with 欧美高清 Sport and how that how that collaboration directly benefits student sport to develop and thrive here at the University of 欧美高清鈥�
鈥淭his initiative has been so successful that it opens up doors to future conversations regarding collaborations on memberships between the two organisations, minimising complexity for students and overall contributing to a better experience for all students engaging with sport and active health at the University.鈥�
Neil Brown, Director of Sport and Active Health at University of 欧美高清 said: 鈥淥ur goal is to make activity, sport and exercise accessible to everybody on campus and it鈥檚 fantastic that this initiative has allowed us to reach a wider audience.
