Discover how to represent Griffith in sport
We select individuals and teams to compete in a variety of sports, representing Griffith University to compete against other Australian universities at Nationals. Nationals are held on the Gold Coast, with division 2 sports to be played in July and division 1 sports to be played in September. There are also a host of other inter-varsity events that cover a number of other sports.
Please note that Unigames no longer exists and Nationals Div 1 & Div 2 replace this program. As a result each sport division is only played once per year, so if you don't sign up for a certain sport division in Nationals Div 2, it will not be available in Div 1. There is only one opportunity to play each sport per year.
