Dedicated human performance, biomechanics and rehabilitation suites and a nutrition teaching kitchen as well as pitches and sports halls, will enable you to apply theory to practice in an advanced scientific environment. We're home to high-performance squads including: Hartpury University RFC Championship team, Gloucester Hartpury RFC Premiership Women’s Rugby team, Hartpury University Football Club, Hartpury Futsal Club, Hartpury University and College Boat Club and Hartpury University Netball Club.

We’re home to a focused community of academic and industry professionals, dedicated to leading best practice in sport and exercise science and business. Our expertise is informed by the latest scientific research and, through our commitment to creating meaningful impact, goes on to influence industry. Our students benefit from a professional environment, learning from lecturers who are also working with professional clubs, our own Sports Academies, as well as young people in schools and the wider community. Many also collaborate with national governing bodies of sport and undertake important research to improve professional practice. Our Hartpury Sports Business Hub provides access to a diverse range of sports organisations, facilitating live business briefs and consultancy projects as part of students' learning.
