Description
The Winchester Gecko's play competitively in the British University College Sports (BUCS) league, Western tier 2. We train twice a week at the university’s astroturf in Bar End, and play every Wednesday, either at home or travelling to other unis for away games.
Socially, we’re a team that’s always doing something! You’ll catch us out at the weekend (and on Tuesdays if there’s no matches!), but we will always be at BOP each Wednesday, dressed in different themes each time. Whether you drink or not, you’re always welcome! We also do socials that don’t involve a late night too, like going bowling or to watch the Women’s FA Cup final at Wembley.
We welcome everyone of any footballing ability- or not at all if you want to become a social member! So, if you play like Lauren James or have never kicked a football in your life, drop us a message on our socials, we're always looking for more players and social members to expand the gecko family!!

MEMBERSHIP T&Cs
Where an activity group (sports team/society/representational network) has a competitive element or other external factors that affect the number of participants, your membership may be subject to criteria other than joining the group via this website. If this results in your membership not being able to be accepted, you will be informed (with any relevant details) and your membership will be refunded.
Membership will not normally be refunded if you cease being a student, if you voluntarily end your membership, or if you are subject to disciplinary action that removes your membership status.
CODE OF CONDUCT
By joining this activity group you are confirming your compliance with Student Union policies and bye-laws, particularly as it pertains to conduct, personal safety and acceptable behaviour.
Initiations: At no point should you feel pressured to drink and get involved in what others are doing, for example to join in with drinking games or ‘challenges’, if you don’t want to. If you are part of an activity group it is completely your choice whether or not you attend a social event. Activity groups are prohibited from carrying out initiation ceremonies, or any initiation-type behaviour, either on or off campus. If you ever feel pressured to take part in social activities as part of an activity group, we would strongly encourage you to report it to us here: https://www.winchesterstudents.co.uk/report It is our upmost priority that you feel safe engaging in Union activity, and there is support available for you if you have experienced or witnessed anything that made you feel uncomfortable or concerned you.
