Team Derby is committed to improving the playing opportunities and performance of all our University's sports teams. Our ambition is to be one of the top 50 universities and colleges competing in British Universities and Colleges Sport.
Team Derby is looking to introduce a performance sport programme for clubs from Sept 2012 to further enhance the student experience and provide opportunities for athletes to achieve excellence in their sport. A performance support package will be awarded to clubs that have potential to achieve in BUCS competition and help build the University's growing reputation for sport. The programme will provide Performance Clubs with additional benefits to complement the basic support we provide to all our student clubs.
The main aims of the programme will be as follows:
Enhance recruitment of players from novice to performance.
Offer improvements in the training opportunities
To develop a programme that encourages participation and supports performance
To assist improvement in BUCS ranking
