Ladies and Gents,

On Saturday 30th November, Cambridge will be taking on Oxford in the famous and historic Varsity Cross Country Match. YOU can be a part of that!

While the top teams have been pre-selected, the Women's 3rd Team (The Gazelles). and the Men's 4th Team (The Trojans) are open to ANY CAMBRIDGE STUDENT willing, able and enthusiastic to run against the Dark side.

The teams are unlimited and the more runners we have the better, as everyone counts towards the final Cambridge score. However, you must be a member of the Hare and Hounds to race. You will be able to join on the day.

So, for a fantastic race around the scenic Shotover course, for a rare opportunity to represent Cambridge University in one of the oldest and most prestigious sports and for a chance to show Oxford what the Light Blues are made of, join us on Saturday 30th November to bring home another Mob Match victory!
