Oxford Cup
from May 1967
by StPetersYork
Thursday, 16th March Senior Event—Won by 124-80. Junior Event—Lost by 44-76.
As always our fixture with Bootham provides a welcome relief from the usual round of Standards, but coming this year a week earlier on the calendar than is normal, selection for the team posed something of a problem. This was particularly so for the 'Under 15' team, where there was little previously known form. For all that a very enjoyable meeting was held and, even if we suspected some weaknesses in our Junior team, we would be the first to admit we were outclassed by some of the Bootham performers, particularly in the jumping events.
