Case Study: University of York Octopush

Octopush as a student sport was struggling as of the 22/23 academic year, relying heavily on external support from local clubs and unable to communicate their brilliant sport to members despite their rich 30+ year history.

With AEGIS’ help, York was able to:

  • Increase paid membership by 500%!
  • Triple social media following!
  • Become Plate Champions at Student Nationals with a team made up almost entirely of new players!
  • Win at the prestigious Roses match against Lancaster, after 8 years of losses.
  • Host regular socials, including BIG BLUE, the biggest sports social of the year with 10+ water sports and 100+ attendees.
  • Raise £2118 for the Challenge Week – the most successful fundraiser in the club’s history.
  • Win a major award at York SU’s Colours Ball for their efforts.
  • Establish a strong and well-known brand across campus.
  • Host regular, high-quality socials and formals for the club.
