About

We have a broad range of opportunities to get involved in handball at The University of Manchester with everything from drop in sessions to high level university competition with our University of Manchester Handball Club.

All the information you need to know about handball should be here but if you do have any further questions, we would love to hear from you.

Sporticipate Sessions

Our recreational sport offer is entitled Sporticipate, and is the entry level programme for all students and staff at The University of Manchester.

All sessions, programmes and events are open to all abilities, specifically people who are new to the activity or complete beginners. All sessions provide equipment and the sessions are facilitated by the UoM Sport Workforce.

Sportcipate runs a full weekly drop in timetable, structured blocks of ‘Learn To’ coached sessions and regular large scale events. All are either free or at very low cost, which helps you stay fit and active during your time on campus.

The University of Manchester Handball Club was established in 2006 and has since won the EHA Men’s Premier League in 2007, University Men’s Championships in 2008, 2010, 2011, reached the semifinals in 2017, and won the University Women’s Championships in 2007 and 2010. We are a student led club training at Sugden Sports Centre welcoming players of all abilities.
