Getting our head in the game with the return of intercollegiate sports

Hear our cheers, see our UC colours and feel our spirit. With our game faces and rugby jumpers on, we put our head in the game and were excited to be back competing in intercollegiate sports after a few years of stop-start competition. Sport has always been something that brings our community together, offering people opportunities to try many different games they might never have played before. For us it’s not about winning, it’s all about letting everyone have a go and bringing our sportsmanship to every event.

This semester we were thrilled to participate in cricket, tennis, crosscountry, table tennis, soccer and hockey. We also had the athletics carnival (including the famous mascot race) and the rowing regatta, which always attracts a supportive crowd from UC and the other University of Melbourne colleges. While we didn’t bring home any medals this semester, we did come third in women’s soccer and our teams brought their A game, with supporters always cheering us on from the sidelines. A big congratulations to our women’s cricket and soccer teams for making it to the semi-finals!

We had a lot of fun getting back into sports and meeting people from other colleges. We look forward to another round of competitive sports in semester 2, with netball, football, badminton, basketball, volleyball and mixed squash all on the cards. We will also have a swimming carnival! Let’s go UC!
