Clubs & Societies

We're LUUSAC (The Leeds University Union Sub Aqua Club).

We’re an award winning branch of the British Sub Aqua Club (BSAC) who have benefited from grants from the Footsteps Fund and the National Lottery: Sports England fund in recent years. We’re still going after being established in 1962 so needless to say we are crazy about all things under water! For more information on training please email info@luusac.uk or message us on Instagram with any queries

Training

We’re one of the largest, cheapest and most active diving clubs in the UK. Every year we open up a limited number of spaces so that people with no diving qualifications can become SCUBA divers! If you’re a qualified diver from another organisations (e.g. PADI) then we would love to have you too!

Meetings

Practical pool sessions take place on Wednesday evenings in the Edge swimming pool at 8-10pm. There is also an open water training weekend for new diver trainees in late November/early December.

Socials

While LUUSAC is primarily a diving society we also have a rich social aspect to the club. We meet every Thursday in term time at 8pm at The Eldon pub, we also hold a number of socials throughout the year including our legendary Christmas Meals and Summer Balls!

Trips

You may be wondering where we dive, considering we live in a landlocked city. We dive at Capernwray Diving Centre south of Kendal, which is a flooded quarry full of lots of exciting things to see. We dive all over the UK coast, with some of our most recent trips to the Lochs near Glasgow and to St Abbs on the South East coast of Scotland.

Every year, we run a trip during the university Easter break. This is typically abroad, in warm water. Some recent trips have been in Lanzarote, Cyprus and Malta.

Membership

You can purchase membership by clicking the ‘memberships’ button at the top. Please note that membership doesn't entitle you to training - training packages are sold separately. You will not be able to dive without proper training.
