The Women's Blues have been competing in BUCS for over a decade and have been particularly successful in recent years. In the 2018-19 season, they progressed through to the BUCS semi-finals after beating Nottingham in the quarter-finals. In the 2019-20 season, they again saw success after success, making it to the semi-finals against Durham, last year's defending champions. That same year, the Blues team were honoured to be nominated for the "Blues Team of the Year" award by Oxford University for their success this season. 

The Swifts have been moving from strength to strength playing in the Southern Premier 2 league. This year they finished 3rd in their league and faced a close loss to Surrey in the Women's Trophy. The squad is the three time defending champions of the BUCS 8s Winner’s Trophy and saw success at the 2021 Lacrosse 6s tournament where they placed in the top 4 (despite much of the team being mid-finals!) This was an incredibly exciting format of lacrosse to play, as it was the 3rd time globally that 6s has been played and we’re beyond proud of the girls rising up to meet this challenge.

Both teams saw victory at the most recent annual Varsity match against Cambridge, and are looking forward to defending their title against the tabs at this years postponed Varsity, taking place on the 2nd October 2021. For more details and match reports please click here.
