About Oxford University AC

Oxford University Athletic Club dates its establishment to 1860 and trains at Iffley Road in Oxford, Oxfordshire, England. Its athletics tradition includes university matches and a long record of international competitors. The club's own Olympians list identifies Roger Bannister and Jack Lovelock as former members, alongside many other athletes from different generations.

OUAC offers training for beginners as well as athletes competing nationally or internationally. Event squads and their leaders provide the route into its training programme, while the Varsity Match, BUCS and other university competitions form part of the sporting calendar. Social activities and warm-weather training also contribute to the student club experience.
