The University of Ulster’s vision is to be the leading university for sport in Ireland. To help us achieve our vision we have implemented an ambitious programme to create and develop structures, services, facilities and expertise. This includes the creation of the Sports Development Unit which enables our students and staff, whatever their sport or participation level, to accomplish their potential to be the best that they can be.

We encourage a healthy and balanced lifestyle among students and staff through involvement in sport and also enable those who have the ability and desire to be successful at the highest possible levels of their sport.

We want others to share our passion for sport at the University of Ulster. The Sports Development Unit at the University seeks to

• Increase participation in sport
• Establish effective partnerships in sport
• Improve standards of performance in sport
• Improve the profile of sport
• Support people working and volunteering in sport
• Bring additional funding into sport

Further information on Sports Development is available directly from the Sports Development website at the University of Ulster.
