This Takeover is a special evening at Ravelin Sports Centre, created exclusively for UOP students. Whether you’re a Fresher finding your feet at university or a returning student looking for something different to do, you’re invited to come along and experience an evening packed with activities, entertainment and plenty of ways to get involved.
From trying out different sports and activities to taking part in something completely new, there’ll be lots to explore throughout the evening. You can choose what you want to do, move between activities and make the most of everything The Takeover has to offer.

You must have a valid ticket to attend The Takeover. Once you’ve got your ticket, you’ll be able to book your activity sessions through the UOP Sport app from Monday 12 October. Make sure you’re ready to book when sessions open, as spaces for individual activities will be limited.

Why should you come to The Takeover?
Looking for something fun to do, a chance to meet new people, or just an excuse to try something completely different? The Takeover is your night to come along, have a go and enjoy yourself, with good music, great energy and plenty going on.
You don’t need to be sporty, experienced or good at anything. No one’s keeping score, no one’s judging, and there’s zero pressure to push yourself. Whether you’re trying an activity for the first time or giving something another go, it’s all about having fun and seeing what happens. You might nail it, you might completely bail, and either way, you’ll probably have a laugh.
Come solo, bring your friends or meet new people when you get here. The Takeover is a great way to connect with other UOP students, especially if you’re still finding your feet at university. You could come not knowing anyone and leave having made a few new friends, found a new activity you love, or even discovered your next favourite way to spend an evening.
Expect a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere where you can get involved at your own pace, try something new and enjoy being part of the UOP community. Come for the activities, stay because it’s actually fun. The only rule? Be yourself, have a go and have a great time.
