Weekly Football Kick Around

  • Tuesdays | 20:00 - 21:00 | Harcourt Hill, 3G
  • Wednesdays | 17:00 - 18:00 | Harcourt Hill, 3G
  • Thursdays | 17:00 - 18:00 | Harcourt Hill, 3G 
  • Sundays | 09:00 - 10:00 | Harcourt Hill, 3G

Come and play non-competitive, recreational football with other Oxford Brookes students in the weekly Brookes Active x Brookes Union kick arounds. These informal kick arounds are all about enjoying the game, without the pressure of competition. 

The aim is to engage students who are typically less active and do not currently engage with Brookes Sport through TEAMBrookes or a membership, but the sessions are open to all students. Whether you're a seasoned player or just looking to kick a ball around for fun, these sessions are the perfect opportunity to unwind, stay active, and socialise. 

Brookes Active sessions must be booked. You can do this through the Brookes Sport app, on Android or IOS, or via our web Book Online portal - see below for more details.

We have equipment you can borrow, so please collect and return balls to the Brookes Sport reception. 

If you are looking for a more structured 5-a-side league, the TEAMBrookes Men's Football Club runs Brookes5side on Saturday evenings on the Brookes Sport, Headington, Astro. Click here to find out more about Brooke5ide.
