The UWE BULLETS American Football Team are the best University American Football teams in the UK. Most of our players have never played American Football before joining the Bullets.
With a National champion title in 2022 2023, and 2024, College Bowl Title XXI title, numerous divisional crowns, and the only sports club at UWE to boast an undefeated streak in Varsity, the UWE Bullets are UWE's most successful sports team. Head Coach, Daniel Maher, heads into the season with the goal to win it all for a fourth year in a row while winning yet another national championship. With the addition of new Head Coach Sam Astley, the second team is also gearing up to win the division and to excel upcoming and talented new players. We also welcome a variety of new coaches on all positions such as Pete Jones for another great successful season.
Our second team gives us the fantastic opportunity to help grow the sport and take on as many new players as possible. It will enable new players to grow and learn the sport and as you progress through university, so will you progress through the team. As you get better and better as a player, you will be able to move up into the first team and play in the National League.
Most of our players have never played American Football before joining the Bullets family, all levels of experience are welcome in the team. The experienced coaching staff will teach you the rules and techniques needed in the game. Our coaches can not do it all; you as a player should be willing to listen, learn and have the will to win.
