Sport Beyond Parkville

Sport is an important part of the student experience at the University of Melbourne, which is why MU Sport's activities are spread across Dookie, Southbank, Werribee, Burnley and Creswick campuses and Rural Health sites.

Our Sports Beyond Parkville Program provides sporting, recreational and fitness opportunities for students studying regionally, via rural health rotations or at other non-Parkville campuses.

Campuses

Sporting, recreational and fitness opportunities will vary depending on your place of study and may include:

  • Casual play
    Shoot some hoops or play some table tennis
  • Social team competitions
    Play with friends in local sporting competitions
  • Engage in University club activities
    Trips and tours to the snow, wakeboarding and other adventure destinations
  • Group fitness classes
    Get a taste for group fitness classes on campus
  • Join local sporting clubs
    Play where you study - regionally or in Melbourne
