If you want to get into sport, or just play for fun then our Get Active programme Impetus is for you!
Impetus is our offering of recreational sports here at Imperial and provides a range of activities: from one-off taster sessions and weekly drop-in sessions to organised intramural sports. The programme is open to all students and staff of any ability and is a great way to meet new people and try new sports. Please note, Impetus only runs during term-time.
How do you sign up?
Simply head along to Ethos Sports Centre and the reception will be able to add your Impetus membership onto your college ID card and you can start attending sessions straight away! Once you have registered, you will be required to swipe at reception each time you go to an Impetus session so please remember to bring your card with you! An impetus membership is £15 per academic year which needs to be paid in full before you can attend any sessions. This £15 will allow you access to the whole recreational programme including intramural sport. You will also receive a free water bottle and Impetus t-shirt for you to wear at the sessions!
Do I need to book in advance?
To participate in ‘drop in’ sessions you can turn up as and when you can so no need to book, however we would recommend arriving as early as you can to sessions as some of the sessions will have a maximum capacity so to ensure you can take part, please arrive in plenty of time. To participate in ‘Intramural sport’ you will be required to sign up as a team at the start of each term to participate. Intramural sport is internal casual sports league open for teams to enter to as halls of residences, academic departments and social groups. Teams enter via our intramural page on the website. The league will begin from the start of each term, with a final being played during the last week of term. Games will be adapted to meet the demand of the league to allow maximum participation. If you would like to more information on intramural sport please look on our website. http://www.imperial.ac.uk/sport/get-active/impetus/ .
