THE WELSH SOCIETY (GYMGYM) Whether you’re a fluent Welsh speaker or just looking to practice your Welsh, the GymGym will give you a range of opportunities to socialise with other Welsh speakers in an informal environment. The GymGym hosts regular events including quiz nights, volunteering opportunities and socials. However, the most memorable events include their annual international rugby trip (in recent years to Dublin or Edinburgh), the inter-college dance and the inter-college Eisteddfod. These three events bring together all Welsh Societies across Wales – giving you the opportunity to socialise with Welsh speakers from all over the country. The GymGym also supports the University’s Welsh-language rugby and netball club, Rygbi a Phêl-rwyd Tawe. *Swansea University TEF return 2017 and 2018
