University Games
The University Games are a series of sports in the University holidays that are set up as a social and competitive competition. There are two games events the Eastern University Games (for universities within NSW) and the Australian University Games (for teams from all universities within Australia and sometimes teams from New Zealand). Sydney Uni has been one of the dominant Eastern University Games volleyball teams with either a medal in the men’s or women’s competition every year for the last 5 years. There are also a number of students that have been selected in merit teams at the Eastern University Games. At the Australian University Games there is a much stronger level of competition and Sydney University regularly sees teams in the top 4 positions. In 2007 Sydney Uni saw both the men’s and women’s teams receiving medals as well as a number of students gaining selection in the “Green and Gold” merit team for their performance in the competition.
