Recent History

The club has been on an upward curve in recent years with results steadily improving. The 1st XI finished 2nd in their BUCS division in 2018 and in the 2018/19 winter the indoor 1st team came 3rd in the BUCS Trophy competition which is the best result in the history of the club and the first time we have reached the finals stage since 2005/6. The reformation of the 2nd XI for this summer is a fantastic step for the club providing more fixtures for all players in the club. The clubs upward curve peaked with the recent tour to Barbados which was a fantastic experience for all involved and is hopefully the start of a fantastic summer!
