Sports Pass
Buy your membership online at the Team Bath Store.
The Sports Pass is the University of Bath’s student sport offering being introduced in September 2011 that will enhance and develop the student sporting experience.
Students with the Sports Pass will have access to a wide range of our sports facilities, including dedicated student participation times, as well as coaching & guidance and priority booking opportunities.
The Sports Pass is just £100 for a year. There is also a saving of £50 against the purchase of a new gym, classes or combined gym and classes memberships for Sports Pass holders.
Students can also continue to use our facilities on a pay and play basis, but we are committed to ensuring the Sports Pass offers the most competitive and attractive deal. Money raised through the Sports Pass will be reinvested into sport at the University.
Students who want to compete in BUCS competitions for clubs that use the University of Bath’s facilities to train and/or compete will need to purchase a Sports Pass.
If you pay tuition fees of more than £7000-a-year, you do not need to buy a Sports Pass as it will be included within your fees. However, please note this does not entitle you to a £50 discount from the gym, classes or combined gym and classes membership.
Please note, exchange students will need to buy a Sports Pass to use facilities, although like other students, they can use facilities on a pay and play basis or take out a relevant membership, if they prefer.
