Don't believe us? Check out our video below...
Pre-season
We offer pre-season for both sides of our club. For new students it can seem daunting at first but we endeavour to make welcoming new students the best it can be. We structure preseason such that freshers are able to stay with major members of their respective club/team until halls open at the start of term. It is a brilliant opportunity to get stuck in and involved with the club before any academic work starts, and a great introduction to the University Campus and wider city.
Womens Pre-season
Our Womens Preseason starts in September and runs for 2 weeks in before freshers week. If you have interest, get in touch to apply.
Men's Pre-season
On the Men's side of the club we welcome back all our players from the preceding season, as well as any new students who have experience playing Men's Lacrosse before Exeter. Preseason runs for the first two weeks of September, as well as during Freshers week. If you have experience playing mens lacrosse prior to Exeter, we urge you to get in touch so you don't miss out of your chance to play during preseason.
