EUCC is a very active club, running at least one river trip,
2 pool sessions,
a polo session and a
social every week. You can come to as much or as little as you want, and whether you’re an experienced paddler, or just want to try something new, there is definitely something for you.
We make the most of the local rivers on Dartmoor every weekend, and the awesome beaches for surfing. During the week we’ll head out for polo training, or to the local play spot at Pots for some freestyle. You can go to the pool sessions twice week to learn and improve you skills, and then head to the weekly social. On top of all this we run an annual trip to the Alps in the last couple of weeks of summer term, and head to loads of different events with other unis. Take a look at what current members have said about their experience of the club here.

Pool Sessions

Every Monday and Wednesday in term
Pool sessions run every Monday and Wednesday in term (not freshers week) from 8 till 10pm in the St. Luke’s pool. If you are on Streatham campus, just meet outside Cornwall house (cafe ritazza side) fifteen minutes beforehand for a free shuttle. If you are a signed up EUCC member and have any gym membership plan (from £35 annual) the sessions are completely free for the whole year, if you haven’t signed up yet don’t worry you can pay a non gym member rate. If you didn’t see us at the squash, its not too late to sign up, just come along to a pool session and talk to one of the committee. If you’re not sure why you should join here are six good reasons.
