Living at University Hall isn’t just about lectures, late-night study sessions, and finding the best toastie combo in the dining hall. It’s also the perfect place to stay active — often without even realising you’re exercising. Fitness here isn’t about pressure or perfect routines. It’s about moving, laughing, and making the most of what’s right outside your door.
Gym? Already Sorted.
Let’s start with the easy win. Gym membership is already included in your weekly rent. No extra sign-ups, no awkward “maybe next month” moment — just show up and get moving.
Whether you’re lifting, running, stretching, or pretending you totally know how to use that cable machine, the gym is there whenever you need it. Some residents go daily, some pop in between classes, and others bring a mate for motivation (or moral support on leg day).
Friday = Intercollege Sports
If competition and team spirit are more your thing, intercollege sport is where it’s at.
Most Fridays, UniHallers head out to take on other colleges in everything from soccer to dodgeball and beyond. It’s competitive, sure — but mostly it’s loud, social, and a lot of fun. Expect cheering from the sidelines, last-minute heroics, and the occasional dramatic celebration.
You don’t have to be elite. Just keen.
Pick-Up Games on the Courts
Sometimes the best workouts are the unplanned ones.
The basketball courts are a regular meeting spot for residents who want to shoot hoops, play a quick game, or just bounce the ball around between classes. It’s casual, social, and often ends with “one last game” turning into five.
The Upper Quad Kick-About
Got a soccer ball? A frisbee? A sudden burst of energy?
Head to the Upper Quad. It’s perfect for a spontaneous kick-about with friends, a bit of touch rugby, or just running around after being stuck in the library all day. No booking, no schedule — just space to move.
Nature Is Right Next Door
One of the biggest perks of living at UniHall is the location.
Step outside and you’re moments away from the trails of Kings Park or the scenic paths along the Swan River. Whether it’s a morning run, a sunset walk, or a weekend jog with friends, these routes make exercise feel less like a workout and more like an adventure.
Fresh air helps too.
The Real Secret? Do It Together.
Fitness at UniHall isn’t about strict routines or perfect plans. It’s about community.
A quick game with friends. A Friday night match. A walk to clear your head. A gym session that turns into a laugh.
Move a little, try something new, and bring a mate along.
Because around here, staying active is just another way of being part of the UniHall experience.
