Sure, UCT has a long
and proud history
in traditional sports
like rugby, cricket
and hockey, but that
doesn’t mean you can’t
use this opportunity
to step away from the
sports you played at
school. Now’s your
chance to try out
a new skill and meet
new people while
skiing or fencing or
practising martial arts.
Why do sports?
“Sport teaches you time management, commitment,
dedication and how to be a team player. It motivates your
academics, as most competitions require certain grades to
be achieved to be able to compete. It gives you a sense of
purpose, and it also relieves stress and gives you energy.”
