You can also play squash through our Campus Courses programme.

Performance Sport

If you’re successful in trying out for our Performance Sport team, TeamBU Squash, you’ll represent BU at national level in British Universities and Colleges Sport (BUCS) leagues and competitions. We’ve currently got two men’s teams and one women’s team who play in BUCS throughout the academic year.

Our Performance Sport staff team will be with you every step of the way, offering support during your time at BU. One of the benefits of being a SportBU athlete is that you’ll have exclusive access to the Strength and Conditioning suite on our Talbot Campus – packed full of specialist equipment to help you stay in the best shape possible.
