Being KCL's Most improved Club in previous years, our society is one of the fastest growing sports clubs on campus and caters to all levels of play. We pride ourselves on our academic and cultural diversity with athletes from around the world studying differing degrees.
All home games and weekly training sessions (Wednesday and Sunday) are held at the newly-built London Thunder practice facility - dubbed “The Thunderdome” at Unit 2, Stockholm Road, South Bermondsey, London, SE16 3LP. Due to its relationship with the Thunder, KCL regularly scrimmages with the London Thunder Academy, coached by former L.A. Laker Steve Bucknall and former Yale Bulldog Josh Davis.
With an exponential increase in the size of the club over previous years, the 2022-23 season will continue to run 4 teams. KCLBC are also proud to announce that for the third year running Urbanest Student Accommodationare is their Official Sponsor this season.
