Sport plays a significant role in the life of the College, but is not compulsory. Sport clubs and sports facilities offer students a wonderful opportunity to make and meet friends. Sports ensure a healthy lifestyle and provide students with a stress-free environment within which to balance their academic life at Oxford. Facilities offered include a high-quality sports ground, with football, rugby, hockey and cricket pitches, grass tennis courts, a squash court and a weights room. Exeter college also has its own boathouse on the Thames, stocked with the quality and quantity of rowing equipment found in most college boathouses: eights, fours, sculls and ergometers. Sport in Exeter is geared to all levels of ability, and there are a number of teams in most major sports for both women and men. There are numerous sporting opportunities from Exeter sports clubs to Oxford University sports clubs. Rowing is very popular in Exeter College however we have also a women’s football team and men’s teams in football, rugby, and cricket. We field teams in a wide variety of other sports, including squash and netball. As with all colleges, the standard of sport depends on the ability and enthusiasm of those in residence at any one time. Many great athletes have attended the college including: Justin Bronder, the boxer and cross-country runner, whose story inspired the film 'Blue Blood', Garrett Johnson, an international Shot Put champion, and Sir Roger Bannister, the first man to run a mile in less than 4 minutes. Over the years Exeter College has built up a reputation of sporting excellence of which we are proud.
