Welcome to the 2008/9 B-Active Leagues

For information on a specific league select the individual page for that sport from the menu on the left.

The B-Active sports leagues are now in their second year and there is a wider range of activities available.

These leagues run throughout the year to give everyone the opportunity to compete at sport in a friendly atmosphere.

The main aims are for people to:

This year there will be leagues in:

11-side Football

Tennis

The Football will run in terms 1 & 2, Basketball will start in term 1, Women's Badminton and Table Tennis will be in term 2, and Tennis will be in terms 2 and 3.

All the leagues will be played on Sundays and they will either be in the sports centre, on the pitches, or on the tennis courts depending on the league.

The competitions are team based so it does not rely on people being available every week and it means that the overall level of the team and not the skills of individual players will be important in winning.

Any member of Lancaster University can take part in these leagues. Unlike Inter-college sport, which provides an opportunity to play sport through your college, these leagues allow you to play for any group; a friends group, a club, a society, a department, or any other group.

All levels are encouraged to take part, although there is a competitive element and winning is the ultimate goal, the league structure ensures all teams will play the same number of matches regardless of their previous match results.

If you have a group of friends who are interested in playing a sport which is not currently covered by the B-Active programme then please contact Alisdair Denholm with your suggestions.
