💛 T2 ON COURT HIGHLIGHTS 🖤

All of our teams put in some incredible performances this term with several results worth celebrating.

Special shout out to W1 who were in the top 5 contributors to York's BUCS points this season 🎉

Can't wait to see you on court next term 🥰

💛 T2 OFF COURT HIGHLIGHTS 🖤

Thanks to everyone who came to our socials, or just to hang out! Being part of a uni/college team is so much more than what you do on court.

Special thanks to our social secs for organising, our sponsors for hosting, and to all of you for coming along and committing (in varying degrees) to the themes.

What's happening this week at UYVC?

Don't forget our Spring Fling is this Thursday too! Look forward to seeing you 🎉
