Clubs and Societies at DBS

DBS Sports Clubs

At DBS we believe happy, healthy students do better in their studies, that’s why we strive to provide a wide range of quality sporting activities to suit everybody’s tastes. Sport in DBS has enjoyed a history of great successes in a variety of sports, from soccer to basketball, cricket to sailing and many more.

DBS Societies

Societies are groups of students that have a common interest. Examples of popular societies in previous years within DBS are the Surf Society, Psychology Society, the Film Society, Drama Society and the Poker Society. Joining a society is a great way of meeting new people with similar interests, and making friends that quite often last longer than your time in University.
