Cuthbert’s Cuthbert’sChronicle Chronicle
Sports and Societies Round up 2021-2022 2021-2022 has been a brilliant year for Team Cuth’s. Our Sports and Societies have gone from strength to strength, with incredible events, sporting successes and memories made. With ever-relaxing COVID-19 regulations and guidelines, Cuth’s Sports and Societies have been able to grow and evolve, enhancing the lives of Cuth’s Students. Following a successful Freshers Fair all the way back in October, Sports and Socs welcomed a new intake of ‘keen fresh’ (as well as students from across all years) - all eager to get involved in everything Cuth’s has to offer. Our Societies have run some incredible events this year. CRACAS have linked with the SCR for their Ale and Cheese evenings, which have been a great success. FemSoc ran a highly engaging series of talks and socials, ArtSoc ran some good creative sessions, and Book Club met to discuss some incredible reads - to name just a few. This year we welcomed many new societies - with the additions of Music Appreciation Society (MAS), Adele Society, and Cuth’s Goes to the Movies - taking our numbers to
40+. These new societies have started to increase their membership and run events, and we look forward to seeing what the next year brings. We also enjoyed a brilliant year in sport. Our Mixed Lacrosse made it the furthest they have in recent memory in the Floodlit Cup, coming second only to Collingwood. Our Men’s Hockey won their league and represented Team Durham in the college varsity against Loughborough, alongside our men’s Futsal Team. Our Women’s Rugby and Football teams both made it to the Floodlit semi-finals, and Wildcats Cheer (joint with Hatfield) performed incredibly well at the inter-collegiate Cheer Competition. This does not take into account the vast numbers of individual matches won by our incredible teams, or the incredible achievements of Cuth’s students representing Team Durham - anyone who has taken part in any matches this year should be proud. Looking ahead - we still have an exciting summer of sport, so stay tuned to see what’s next for the incredible Team Cuth’s! #bleedgreen
