Overview

The Sports Review is a joint project between Imperial College Union and Sport Imperial, aiming to create a joined up, more effective and more inclusive sporting offer at Imperial.

The strategy will be adopted for the next three to five years, and have funding and resource impacts on students, Clubs, Societies & Projects, Sport Imperial and the Union. The aim is to get more students taking part in more Sport & Physical Activity in more places.

A student body consultation has highlighted a general push towards enabling participation on a more casual basis, with major barriers involving time, location, and capacity of facilities.

What's been proposed?

A working group consisting of members from Imperial College Union, Sport Imperial and student volunteers has generated the following list of themes, each of which has been broken into five to ten objectives (click on the links to see more details.

  • Partnerships – Sport Imperial and the Union’s partnerships with each other, CSPs, and other stakeholders.
  • Profile – The internal and external profile of Sport Imperial, the Union, CSPs, and sportspeople at Imperial.
  • Places & Facilities – Creating and maintaining access to facilities of appropriate quality from all IC campuses.
  • Physical Health and Wellbeing – Instilling values of holistic health, and promoting the positive effects and benefits of Sports and Physical Activity.
  • Pathways – the provision and development of sport at all levels of participation and engagement, both on and off the pitch.
