In the spirit of staff wellbeing, Loughborough Sport believes in encouraging staff to get out of the office, be active and try something new. These sessions are relaxed, fun, suitable for complete beginners, and are a great way to make some new friends.
Currently, there are weekly sessions of Badminton, Football, Squash and Netball – these are self-led, just turn up and play. We also offer weekly Staff Active Lunchtime sessions featuring different sports each week, please see upcoming sessions below.
- Tuesday 30 Apr 2024, 12pm-1pm: Rounders –, led by a Student Sport Office placement student, PEC (the green artificial grass pitch by the University main entrance)

Any equipment required is provided, and changing facilities and showers are available near all these locations. All you need to bring is comfortable shoes and clothing, and a water bottle.

Subject to interest and demand, Loughborough Sport is keen to offer weekly outdoor tennis and beach volleyball sessions over the summer period, to make the most of the good weather and our facilities.
For the Staff Active Lunchtimes, there is also a mailing list and Outlook Calendar Invite. To be added to the mailing list, or for any other queries, please contact the Staff Sport mailbox at staff.sport@mailbox.lboro.ac.uk.
