Development Squad
In 2022, we introduced our first non-BUCS team, known as the third team. This team consists of approximately 15 students and competes in friendly home and away matches against other universities, coordinated by the Development Secretary.
The typical handicap range is 3-8, though this varies each year based on the overall standard.

Selection Process
To be considered for the squad, you must participate in the BUCS squad trials held in October. If you are not selected for the BUCS squad, you will have the opportunity to join the third team.
Coaching
We offer an exclusive 9-lesson coaching package for the development squad at a cost of £55. Sessions are led by BUCS coach Russell Covey (see BUCS squad coaching for more details on his background).
They run fortnightly on Saturday afternoons. There are two slots from 11-12pm, and 12-1pm. Maximum of 4 per group.
