Sporting Activities

College Sports

Students in DLC regularly participate in many different sports on a social level, ranging from snooker, table tennis, cricket, soccer and hockey. On occasion, the sports representative will organise a friendly tournament between college residents.

Inter-College Competitions

A friendly sporting rivalry exists between Dunmore Lang College (DLC), our neighbour Robert Menzies College (RMC), and the Macquarie University Village (MUV). A variety of sports including soccer, softball, touch football, rugby, cricket, hockey, netball and basketball are all contested throughout the academic year.  In some cases, representatives from Dunmore Lang travel across Australia to compete in the National College or University Games.
