UCFB’s Student Union, at both our Etihad and Wembley Campuses, are designed to make your time at UCFB as sociable and enjoyable as possible. From futsal to rugby, and several non-sport communities to immerse yourself in, there a range of activities to ensure you gain more than just a degree during your time at UCFB.

Our committed Student Union also host a variety of events, to encourage students from all years to come together and enjoy a welcome distraction from their studies – or, as the end of term approaches, celebrate the end of their exams. This year, the Wembley SU hosted a Boat Party – going out in style. Here, Cassandra Aina, a BA (Hons) Sports Law and Sports Business student, summarises the event and how much she enjoyed it…

On the 27th of April 2022, the Student Union organised a boat party for all of the UCFB Wembley students. This event seemed to be very popular as all of the tickets sold out within the first day of it being advertised. All of the students arrived at 6:45 pm and I could already tell that everyone was buzzing with excitement. 

The boat set sail at 7 pm from Temple pier and all students were provided with two drink tokens.  As we all know, England is not known for its sunny weather but fortunately, on this day, the sun was blaring down providing the perfect golden hour for everyone’s pictures. As the night went on majority of the students came inside and headed to the dance floor. The DJ's old-school playlist was great, as it meant that everyone knew all of the songs. Unfortunately, the clock stroke 11 pm and it was time to return to the pier and make our journey home. The Student Union was bombarded with compliments thanking them for all of their hard work!
