History Society (Football)

HistSoc FC is a student run football club, playing in the University of Southampton's Intramural Leagues. In recent seasons, HistSoc have had two competitive teams, and 2025-26 season will provide another chance for a new set of players to showcase their abilities. Both our teams are looking to follow up on our impressive double league win last season, lifting the trophies in both the sunday 1st and 3rd division. We view a complete team dynamic as crucial in achieving these aims - forged through outstanding attendance on both matchdays, on Sundays, and at training, on Wednesdays. We see the club's social aspect as key in establishing more than on-the-pitch team cohesion. For new members, joining us offers you the best possible opportunity to meet mates that you will keep throughout your time at Southampton. We aim to hold as many socials as we can - the first of many to be the legendary Pub Golf, in the early weeks of the academic year - with outrageous golfing attire an absolute must! The annual HistSoc FC tour has seen the boys wreak havoc across Europe, with places like Prague, Krakow and Budapest coming to mind. Last year we travelled to Edinbrugh; seeing the sights, experiencing the nightlife and playing against the locals. It goes without saying that this holiday won't just be a highlight of your university experience, but one you'll remember forever. The return of the Histsoc FC tour is something we are all looking forward to and it should be a special one this year, as Histsoc FC hits Europe.
