The AoC Sport National Championships 2023 will take place over the weekend of 14-16 April, at the University of Nottingham and local facilities. This is set to be a really exciting event, engaging students in competitive sport as well as a number of voluntary roles.
This year’s Championships will be run in partnership with Nottingham Conferences – the event delivery arm of the University of Nottingham. Now entering its 43nd year, the National Championships are a celebration of competitive sport in colleges, providing recognition, enjoyment and a unique opportunity for students to compete. They also remain the largest annual student sporting event in Europe, with nearly 2,000 college students taking part last year.
