About

Barts and the London’s very own basketball club has found great levels of success in recent years, with a promotion in the Men’s BUCS leagues and a National Association of Medics title. This year, we are looking to grow with new members, and secure some more titles for the club.

We welcome new members of all abilities, whether you want to train, play competitively, or just be a social member. Training is led by a level 3 coach every Saturday, and a weekly social league takes place each Tuesday at QMotion. Regular social events will be scheduled throughout the year, along with charity events and friendly matches, so be sure to follow our Facebook and Instagram pages to stay up to date.

Training

Times: Every Saturday 2-4 PM @ Mossbourne Victoria Park Academy E9 7HD

Equipment: Appropriate clothing + trainers/basketball shoes. Basketballs will be provided.

Competitions

BL Men's basketball competes in BUCS Men’s southeastern tier 4, LUSL recreational, the QMSU Sports League, and Merger Cup.

Recreational Basketball

QMSU also offers Get Active Basketball sessions for just £2.50 per session and open to all abilities. It's a fun, social, turn up and play programme, visit the Get Active site for more information.

Personal Fitness

QMSU offers a gym on the Mile End campus, Qmotion, as well as a sister-gym in Charterhouse Square, Fitness to Practice, both with competitive student membership rates. This is ideal for students who want to purchase a gym membership - which is separate from a Club Sport subs - to improve and maintain peak physical fitness.

A personalised gym programme tailored to your own fitness goals;
A full demonstration of exercise and techniques, and guidance on resistance machines;
Information and advice on nutrition;
A 60-minute review session every 6-8 weeks to re-evaluate and re-customise a new programme to avoid plateaus.
