From Your Officer

Dafydd, Vice President Sports 26/27

Hi there! I'm Dafydd, the new Sports Officer at Swansea Students' Union.

Throughout my time at university, I've been heavily involved in sport through the Rugby Club and by attending fantastic events such as Swansea 7s. I've also been known to be pretty handy at darts—except on Flight Night!

I'm really excited to get started, and I can't wait to meet you all. I'll see you on Wednesday night!

Wear the Kit

Whether you're a student athlete, a sports fan, or you're just looking for some high quality leisurewear, you can purchase the official sports kit from the Swansea University Surridge Sport shop all year round and wear the green and white kit with pride.

From socks and hats, to warm coats and fleeces, there's plenty for everyone. (Include photo in circle alongside).
