Trouble for Southampton 2’s at Bath Time

Report by: Thomas Harrington-Vogt Game: Southampton Men’s 2nds vs. Bath 2nds (6/11/16) In my first competitive appearance in the pool this year I was thirsty to get my paws on some balls. The speedo clad boys sat poolside in harmonious silence, staring into the aquatic arena for inspiration as they prepared for battle.

A Gallant Effort

Report by: Alexandra Ainscow (Ladies’ 1sts Captain) Game: Southampton vs. Exeter (2/11/16) The girls arrived keen to gain more experience and learn as they played.

Southampton 1sts vs. Swansea (30/10/2016)

Report  by: Christian Laurent We departed so early it was still dark. The brave men in Anton’s car were understandably on edge, travelling in such treacherous conditions. The dark literally scared the shit out of Anton such that he needed a poo at the Shell Garage just 1 mile from campus. Luckily, Anton’s car is made from sturdy metal, so it should do pretty well … Continue reading Southampton 1sts vs. Swansea (30/10/2016)
