23rd Ladies Water Polo Varsity Match<br />
18th February 2006, Rosenblatt pool, Oxford<br />
<strong>Cambridge</strong> 5 – 13 Oxford<br />
The Ladies Team were once again unfortunately defeated by an incredibly strong (possibly strongest ever) Oxford side in the<br />
annual Varsity Match.<br />
Goals: Etiebet 2, Maier 2, Mell 1<br />
Other Team Highlights<br />
Following a large loss <strong>of</strong> players from the previous season, we were lucky to gain lots <strong>of</strong> keen new players to the sport. The year<br />
was very much one <strong>of</strong> rebuilding the team, nonetheless there were numerous good performances, including our first match<br />
together as a team beating ULU. BUSA was relatively early on in our season hence we didn’t perform as well as perhaps we<br />
could have, however, we played a tough group and also in the Michaelmas term narrowly lost 13 – 12 to Manchester<br />
<strong>University</strong>, who subsequently went on to come second overall in BUSA.<br />
On our spring tour to Callela, Spain, there were many tireless performers and we won some demanding matches against local<br />
teams. By the end <strong>of</strong> the intensive week there were noticeable improvements in individual’s fitness, skills, awareness and<br />
importantly team communication.<br />
By the time Varsity Match arrived, we had already performed well against teams such as Otter <strong>of</strong> London, and went into the<br />
match with a positive frame <strong>of</strong> mind. Oxford however, produced a strong team and defeated us on the day. It was a natural<br />
disappointment not to win however despite the overall result, there were excellent <strong>Cambridge</strong> performances, including Varsity<br />
first-timers Rachael Mell and Donna Etiebet, who fought it out in the pit. A very notable game also came from Sophie Pickford<br />
in goal.<br />
