Once every few weeks, we run LAN events at the Ridge building in Ranmoor Student Village. They're an excellent opportunity to engage with the groups you play games with. If you've not yet been to a LAN and would like to learn more, head this way!
Competitive
For the ranked players among you, we engage with the NUEL every year in games like CS:GO, League of Legends, and Rocket League. Take the fight to other universities and wave that black and gold banner!
