American Football

The Tigers is a mixed gender team and we pride ourselves on our inclusivity and team ethic.

We compete in the BUCS Division 1 Borders League. We have been very successful in recent years, gaining promotion to this division in 2022, and making the playoffs of this division in 2023.

Socials

Off the pitch, we have a very active social presence around the university. Activities include weekly socials, joint socials with other sport teams, NFL watch parties, an annual trip abroad, and many more! There are always opportunities to be social through the team.

Training

Training Training is based within Glasgow and occurs twice per week. We play fixtures on Sundays. We also offer private team gym sessions and advice on Strength and Conditioning.

See the Club Sport Training Timetable for training times

Membership

There is no prior knowledge of the sport needed in order to join the team and we provide all kit to registered players.

There are no try-outs for the team, but a commitment to attending training is encouraged. So, if you are interested in playing for our team, come along to one of our training sessions and play some ball!

For those who have never played the sport before, there is a taster session at the start of the Autumn term to give you the chance to try the sport.

We're keen to help team members gain skills that will help them after they leave university, with many opportunities in fundraising, coaching, officiating, leadership, and outreach!
