With a truly national and increasingly international student body, Victoria University fosters an environment in which every one, as well as everyone’s opinions, are both welcomed and nurtured. A fulfilling student social life is considered an essential part of the University experience. One of the best ways to build student social circles is to participate in the many on-campus activities, and an outdoor soccer event is surely one of them.
