Fencing took a solid win against Durham with 135-57 which sees them undefeated this year. Squash just lost out to Sheffield 3-1. Men’s Basketball also took second in the arena that will see them open Roses 2017 in just a few week.  

Vice President Activities, Jack Walker says, “It was fantastic to see 4 teams make it to the final, especially 3 women’s teams, 2 of which coming away with gold on International women’s day. This really does a lot to showcase Women in Sport. It was also great to be able to test out the ground before Roses 2017.”
