Join a league

Compete against friends, flatmates and course mates in our 5-a-side and 11-a-side football Campus Leagues. Compete against other teams at Manchester Met as well as teams from the University of Manchester and the University of Salford in weekly fixtures at our Platt Lane Sports Complex and Hough End Leisure Centre.

Our Campus Leagues are a great way to play the sport you love in a social but competitive environment, with trophies and prizes at the end of the year for the winning team.

If you don’t have a team, please contact us and you will be assigned a team if and when spaces become available. You can register your interest via the link at the bottom of this page.

Fixtures will take place on Wednesdays and Sundays between 1:00 - 7:00pm.
