UCL football team

Hey guys, i was just wondering how competitve football is at ucl. is it taken seriously? im hopefully starting in sept 05 and im a keen football player but im slightly worried there wont be a team to play in :frown: can anyone shed any light
Well I know there are 1st, 2nd and 3rd UCL teams. Not sure of the standard. There's also the University of London football team which will probably be a pretty high standard.

I think I read you're going for law right? The law faculty have their own team although apparently they're not very good :p: It's all fun though right? :biggrin:

I'm sure there are other teams as well :smile:

Well I can't really say because I don't go there yet, but I imagine the Uni of London team would be pretty high... maybe Ryman League standard? Maybe not that high (even the best university teams in the country are nothing compared to a conference side).

I'm hoping to get into one of the UCL teams myself, although like I said I have no idea of the standard. They train on the same fields as Arsenal and Watford though, apparently :biggrin:

Good luck in your exams! Maybe see you next year :smile: What position are you? I'm a striker.

UCL has 7 offical football teams...ucl 1st, ucl 2nd......ucl 7th.


I played for ucl 4th which was mainly second years except me and one other, but quit after a few game cos it takes up the whole of wednesday since our homepitch is far away (around 40 mins drive, by the way watford train there!).

ucl 1st and second, is VERY VERY competitive, they make you train 3 times a week + match + make you wear a suit to the matchday.

Also you have departmental football teams and other society football teams like one slovakians, which are less competitive.
7 eh? Well that's pretty good :smile: I just hope I can play for one of them!

I fear that my toe problems may be a problem though :mad: Unless I can get it all sorted over the summer. I really have to start getting fit again to stand any kind of chance...
