Club Report<br />
2005/2006 has been an excellent year for CUTC. Club membership (which tripled in 2004/2005) has remained steady at<br />
around 90 members, about the maximum we can cope with given our current training facilities. This, coupled with a slight<br />
increase in membership fees has enabled us to purchase a fourth trampoline; a international competition standard bed, as<br />
well as carrying out significant repairs on our other beds. We have also carried out extensive repairs to our overhead rig,<br />
allowing more advanced moves to be learned safely.<br />
Possibly the most important competition <strong>of</strong> the year was Varsity and this year’s team were looking to win back the cup<br />
from Oxford away from home. On the day, Kate Gladders and Zoe Leake won the A and B Team competitions respectively,<br />
which, along with an overall win in the C Team, handed <strong>Cambridge</strong> both the cup and 2 Varsity points. Successes also came<br />
in the British Universities <strong>Sport</strong>s Association competition finals, held in Lancaster. Lee Meakin came 17th in the Elite Men,<br />
while Kate Gladders gained 9th place overall in the Elite Ladies.<br />
Another <strong>of</strong> this year’s big developments was the granting <strong>of</strong> Half Blue status to men after many years <strong>of</strong> campaigning.<br />
Meanwhile, women gained automatic Full Blue status for the first time. Congratulations are therefore in order for Kate<br />
Gladders, CUTC’s first ever recipient <strong>of</strong> an automatic Full Blue.<br />
