The Swallows are the ladies medics football team representing the University of Southampton. We are a very friendly and welcoming group. We welcome all abilities, from complete beginners to Lionel Messi in his prime. The swallows also have a range of years represented, so it’s such a good way to get to know other medics in different years (many have very helpful words of encouragement + advice!!). We train every Tuesday evening (note the evening change, as we used to meet on Wednesday’s) and participate in a local 5-a-side league on Thursday evenings. We are also a part of a regional NAMS league and will have the opportunity to play other medical schools from across the country. In addition, we have an annual varsity with Brighton and Sussex Medical School, which is guaranteed to be an exciting day. 

On our committee, we have two tour secs that will organise a fabulous getaway for our wonderful swallows (the location of which is top secret until we leave). This is an annual tradition that is always a fantastic time. Our social secs also organise regular socials, which are an excellent opportunity to get to know other swallows, unwind from the world of medicine, and even see some of the best that Portswood has to offer (aka Jesters). If you want to try out the swallows and get involved, we would LOVE to have you along. Find us at the Medsoc bunfight, message us on our Instagram, @swallowsfc or email one of the committee members listed below.
