Nerd Varsity 2023: 20th Feb - 12th Mar

Do you have what it takes to challenge our Nerds? Prepare for three weeks of intense nerdy competition, with everything from Lightsabre battles to Mariokart, from Board game tournaments to the nerdiest of quizzes.

Test yourselves against the strongest of foes from the seven most nerdy Societies, and try to come out on top as a champion!

Each day, the Societies (or the Challenger Group, if you feel like taking them on) can win a number of points for their team, and you can choose where your allegiances will lie. At the end of the three weeks, the points will be totalled to pronounce which group are the Ultimate Champions of Nerd Varsity.

£4.20 for members of the Societies, or £5 for non-members, will guarantee you entry and participation in any of the events over the course of the three weeks - all profits will go to the winner's choice of charity at the end of Nerd Varsity (where the Challenger Group is overwhelmingly comprised of a particular society, the winnings will go to a charity of that society's choice, otherwise the winnings will go to the Cardiff Volunteering's choice of charity).
