EVENTS:
COs Cup Dodgeball After the disappointment of cancelling the volleyball tournament way back in March, the CO’s Cup returned with some friendly dodgeball. On 27th of June, 3 teams battled for bragging rights of being named dodgeball champions. After playing each other twice through JFAC was crowned as the winner, 2nd place where ISW and 3rd place where FDS. Look out on station announcements, PEd Facebook page, and Gym noticeboards to get your section involved in future events.
April MyZone Challenge Over April the gym set a MyZone challenge to be the first user to reach 3000 MEPs. Across the facility 16 people managed to reach the impressive target. First to the goal was CalumF!
Using a MyZone is a great way to track workouts, increase your effort, and get competitive in the gym. Please speak with PEd staff for more information if you are interested in getting one.
Career Management Sports Day On 17th May over 50 career management attended a section sports day hosted by the gym. This was a great opportunity for people to get together after a long period of working from home. Teams were put together and enjoyed a picnic alongside games of rounders, French cricket, and old-school sports day games. Events like this are great to improve moral, teamwork, and competitive spirit- try and get your own sections involved in the CO’s Cup and other station events for a bit of fun and team building! Sports:
Football The Station Football team made it to the RAF Plate Final on the 12th of June. It was a tough fought match, losing in the last kick of the game. Final score: RAF High Wycombe 2: RAF Digby 3
Hockey inter-stations A joint RAF High WycombeHalton team won the Hockey Inter-Stations in May. After winning 3 group games, they qualified straight to the final to play RAF Brize Norton; the team who had won the trophy every year for the last 10.

Swimming inter-stations Personnel from High Wycombe represented the station at the swimming inter-stations. The women’s team came 3rd overall.
Gym Tips: If you are unsure of what to do for a session or need some inspiration to get to the gym, take a look at the whiteboards positioned around the sports hall. Photos of these can also be found on our Facebook page. They contain the circuits that we deliver each week and can be easily repeated on your own or with a workout partner - a great option if you can’t make it to our timetabled circuits. Just ask if you are unsure of any of the exercise.
