<strong>The</strong> Badminton Club has gone from strength to strength this<br />
year. Our mens’ 1 st team won the <strong>University</strong> League against<br />
some stiff competition and came top out <strong>of</strong> forty really good<br />
teams. Our women’s team is improving and I am confident it<br />
will not be long before they follow the men’s lead. We are a very<br />
friendly group and our Monday evening clubnight sessions are<br />
popular and enjoyed by all. I am also pleased to report that the<br />
first <strong>of</strong> what I hope will become an annual black tie dinner took<br />
place with the tennis and hockey clubs. It was a well attended<br />
and very successful event. I have enjoyed being Captain for the<br />
last two years and will leave <strong>Keble</strong> knowing that the club is in<br />
great shape and look forward to hearing that we successfully<br />
defended our title next year.<br />
For <strong>Keble</strong>, a college that does not usually attract the same<br />
number <strong>of</strong> experienced oarsmen as its competitors, rowing<br />
facilities are at a premium. (<strong>The</strong> extraction <strong>of</strong> every metre per<br />
second <strong>of</strong> speed from our squad is vital if we are to compete<br />
with the traditional powerhouses <strong>of</strong> college rowing. This year<br />
has seen <strong>Keble</strong> establish a set-up which should hopefully level<br />
the playing field somewhat in this regard.) <strong>The</strong> new launch,<br />
Erigo, has made a big difference to our water sessions and our<br />
new coach along with the new erg machines mean that even<br />
when the river levels are high we can make gains in fitness.<br />
Finally, our new 1 st VIII boat, Neptune, is a thing <strong>of</strong> beauty and<br />
enables a more consistent stroke. All <strong>of</strong> these have been put<br />
to good use this year, with good results starting to flood in at<br />
