Performance programmes
The University of St Andrews proudly supports eight elite teams through its Performance Sport programme. Each team benefits from tailored support, including a dedicated Director or Head Coach, enhanced sport science services—such as strength & conditioning and performance analysis—increased funding, priority access to training facilities, and long-term development strategies.
Many of our top teams compete in the BUCS Premier League and consistently rank in the top tier of Scottish university sport. Our goal is to expand the number of teams competing at the highest level of British student sport, with a clear focus on winning national titles.
Beyond BUCS and SSS, several teams also compete in national-level competitions, offering our student-athletes a broader, more challenging sporting experience.
