VARSITY: 

2021/2022 result: Swansea 0-2 Cardiff

The Welsh Varsity is a big event in the sporting calender and as this year is a home varsity, we hope it'll be even bigger! Varsity is usually held in April therefore the squad is announced closer to the event. 

REFUNDS:

• Cardiff Uni Ladies football will give a full membership refund if:
  • A member has sustained an injury within a month of applying for their membership, which inhibits them to train or play matches.
  • A member changes their mind about their membership 1 week after they pay. After this week, they will not be eligible for a refund.
• If a member ‘drops out’ of Cardiff University, their refund will be determined by how far they are into the year. The club’s president will decide this. 
• Similarly if a member sustains an injury, inhibiting them to take part in training or matches, their refund will be determined by how far they are into the year. The club’s president will also decide this.

Other than this, members are not eligible for a refund on their membership. The club president at the time will deal with the incident and judge it accordingly.
