Results
The score currently stands at 7-2 in Brookes' favour, and with over 40 points up for grabs, this year is sure to be an excitingly competitive one.
The main day of Varsity action is on Saturday 25th March, with fixtures taking place across Oxford at Brookes Sport, Headington and Harcourt Hill, Oxford Quins RFC, Blackbird Leys Pool, Florence Park Tennis Courts and Studley Wood Golf Course.
Varsity will be kicked off on Wednesday 22nd March with Athletics, Equestrian, Polo and Shooting taking place.
This year there is a new and unified TEAMBrookes mascot leading the charge – the Brookes Bulldogs! The Brookes Union, led by Phoebe, VP Activities and Employability Officer have worked hard to unify the teams behind the Brookes Bulldogs for 2023.
The action kicks off at Brookes Sport, Headington with Men’s Futsal at 8:30am and will end with Men’s Basketball tipping off at 9pm.
A spectator guide will be shared closer to the day and keep an eye on our Instagram for updates @brookessportoxford.
The event is free for spectators and we really encourage people to come down and cheer on the teams as it’s set to be a brilliant day of sport!
