It is difficult not to wonder what Trinity term might have held in store for the Eagles,<br />

given that the quality of play was at its best at the very end of the Cuppers season<br />

at the close of Hilary. Nonetheless, this cutting short meant that Queen’s women’s<br />

football of 2019-20 went out on a high note with the Cambridge tour in 8 th week where<br />

we played excellently against some of Cambridge’s finest teams, including their own<br />

league winners, Queens’, and where we achieved as many wins in a weekend as we<br />

had all year!<br />

A special thank you must go to Jess Martin, our social secretary this year, who<br />

organised all the football calendar highlights such as the Santa dinner, football dinner,<br />

and tour.<br />
