What's New in BUCS Play

12.0

August 27, 2026

We've updated fixture scorecards with a new layout & clearer stats to make following matches even easier.

User reviews

Abusively intrusive

To register it contains a list of obligatory questions that make the census look straightforward.
Why do I have to tell you the occupation of the main wage earner in my household when I was 14 in order to look at fixtures?

Worst app ever

Come on BUCS please do better! It crashes all the time and then just will not work at all. Adds stress to the already stressful student athlete life

THE WORST APP

This app is completely pointless. Not one thing on it works. It continually forgets what sports/ comps you’re in and anytime you press on ANY BUTTON it says β€œsomething went wrong”. Literally the worst app I have ever used. The whole thing needs remaking from scratch. It is AWFUL

Awful

Didn’t get as far as seeing the app as gave up after the fifth ridiculous question about sexual orientation…

Unusable

app and website have been unusable for years. navigation is impossible. good luck trying to find your team, league, sport, results etc. UI and UX are awful
