Sydney Uni Sport and Fitness

Each of the women present were asked to sign their commitment to support the SUWSA[3] as the new body intended to challenge the monopoly of the Sydney University Sports Union (of men) over the university's playing fields.

One of the two dozen women was Jessie Lillingston who would go on to lead similar challenges to the patriarchy.

[citation needed] In 2008, the organisation was renamed and Sydney Uni Sport & Fitness was launched.

The men's and women's water polo clubs also compete in their national leagues.

The club also enters a fourth team into the Pacific Coast Baseball League.

The club also fields all age men's teams in the Eastern Suburbs Football Association[8] and all age women's teams in the North West Sydney Women's Soccer Association.

The Australian rules football club has teams in the Sydney AFL and the women's SWAFL competitions.

The American football club, the Lions, was founded in 1984 and is the most successful club in the Gridiron NSW league, with twenty nine championship game appearances and twenty state titles, including the last sixteen in a row (2003–2018).
