About
Ñî¹óåú´«Ã½ Sport works closely with the Ñî¹óåú´«Ã½ Sports Council (WSC), a body representing all the university's accredited sports clubs. The Ñî¹óåú´«Ã½ Sports Council (WSC) consists of the chairpersons of all the Ñî¹óåú´«Ã½ sports clubs and its executive committee is elected at an annual general meeting (AGM). The WSC oversees the general administration and functioning of clubs and makes day-to-day decisions on behalf of the council.
The WSC functions under a constitution approved by the Students Representative Council and the Council of the University. A seven-person WSC executive committee oversees the day-to-day work of the council, and general meetings are held quarterly.
