2012 Annual Report - Jesus College - University of Cambridge

The men’s 1st XI despite losing 5 players to the Blues side still went on to comfortably
win their league to gain promotion up to the top division. The team remained
undefeated and finishing the season having scored 45 goals and only conceded 7. Once
again JCHC were able to field a men’s 2nd XI who went on to finish second in their
league while maintaining their status as a fun team open to all.
Although suffering from a lack of fresher interest the girls of JCHC still had a strong
season, losing only 2 matches over the season and being the top goal scoring team in
the league. The team remained unbeaten in the league up until their final match against
St Catz, the eventual league winners, leaving us 2nd.
In the cuppers competition after being knocked out in the first round by a strong team
from Murray Edwards the girls went on to win the plate competition, with a 5-2 win over
Girton in the final.
With many players still here next year hopefully JCHC will hopefully continue to go
from strength to strength next season.
