The BUCS Football Development Team is excited to host this new season’s first Football Development Network Day, taking place at CBS Arena in Coventry. This free event brings together university staff and students involved in the planning, delivery, or development of Football and Futsal programmes across higher education. This season, we would like universities to invite their Football & Futsal Club presidents to the event. Due to capacity, we will only be able to accept registrations from Club Presidents (or Vice Presidents if unavailable). This should enable universities and their clubs to improve connectivity ahead of the new season.'
The day will highlight how BUCS Football Development Team is supporting the growth of football in higher education and helping institutions enhance their student offer. Through shared learning, discussion, and updates from the team, we’ll explore how the football landscape is evolving and how we can work together to strengthen it. We’ll also share key developments in football initiatives, funding opportunities, and wider sector support available throughout the season.
Equally important, the event is a fantastic opportunity to connect with peers from universities across the country. Whether you're just getting started or leading a well-established programme, the Network Day creates space to share experiences, exchange ideas, and learn from others working in the university football space. The event is completely free, and lunch and refreshments will be provided, with all dietary requirements catered for.
