Travelling to and from Fixtures

It is your responsibility to travel to and from sports fixtures, however, we are here to help!

The Sports Administrator will book a coach every week for those playing at Shenley. Departure and return times, and coach capacity will communicated to you through weekly fixture confirmation.

If you are competing outside of London in a BUCS fixture, you can request train tickets/coach travel in advance. Simply complete the travel request form and the Sports Administrator will be in touch.

The vast majority of fixtures will be accessible via public transport so this is your first option. If you are struggling to find the most efficient route to a fixture please contact the Sports Administrator.

Please read further information here.

Travel Reclaim Process

Captains, presidents and treasurers can create fixtures through their club's homepage. Simply select the fixtures tab, create a new fixture and complete the form in full. Every member added to a fixture will be able to create a travel reclaim by selecting the travel reclaim tab on their personal account. Once all travel reclaims have been uploaded, captains will need to approve/reject these and lock the fixture so that we can begin the reimbursement process.

How to Book a Sports Facility (LUSL Captains)

LUSL captains will need to ensure that facilities are booked to accommodate your LUSL fixtures. Ideally you will have weekly bookings that can incorporate regular LUSL matches and/or training as well.

1. Contact a venue(s) to enquire about their availability.

2. When you are happy that the venue can meet your needs please complete a booking form in the name of your Club (e.g., Team UCL RUMS Tennis Club c/o Student's Union UCL Finance, 25 Gordon Street, London, WC1H 0AY) and request an invoice. DO NOT SIGN A CONTRACT.

3. Your President or Treasurer can then submit a contract to the Club and Society Contract Webform along with a Purchase Request Form with your invoice.

4. We will get this signed and paid for!

We are refining our processes but helpful how-to guides will be released in time for you to get your teams ready for the start of a new season

BUCS Events

Upcoming BUCS Events can all be found on the BUCS Event Page.

It’s important to know when your BUCS Event is as far in advance as possible, as there can be a lot that goes into planning/preparing for each event.

Event Entry Process

Each student will need to enter themselves into a BUCS event on BUCS Play. The institution administrator will then review and accept these entries.

Planning Process

If you're attending an event as an individual please get in contact with us and we will help get travel and accommodation arrangements in place.

If your club is attending the event then there are a number of things to plan

1. Confirm the number of students who will be attending and get them to sign up on BUCS Play as soon as possible.

2. Begin planning travel and accommodation arrangements and get in touch with us to confirm the costs of each of these expenses. We will be able to recommend places to stay, best methods of travel and provide quotes for this.

3. Complete an Activity Registration form that clearly details the total number of expenses and how these costs will be covered. Guidance on this is available.

4. Get your travel and accommodation arrangements booked! We can pre-book large numbers of train tickets or coach travel, or, you can book train tickets yourselves and get these reimbursed. We can process credit card payments for accommodation as well as pay any invoices for accommodation.
