INTER-COMPANY TRAINING & VISITS
Queen’s Challenge Cup
The morning of April the 22nd 2017 saw an athletic selection of Cambridge University Officer Cadets, board a coach headed towards the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst.
Clad in smart new team kit, they were to compete in the University Officer Training Corps annual sports competition, the Queen’s Challenge Cup. The event is an opportunity
to bring nationwide UOTC’s together to
enjoy the opportunity to bask in the beautiful surroundings of the Old College grounds, whilst
competing in various sporting events.
As orienteers headed off into the brilliant sunshine, boys rugby and football matches began, while netball and hockey teams warmed up for their tournaments against a number of OTC’s from across the country. Our teams were largely made up of many who hadn’t played sports competitively since secondary school
but who had stepped in to support CUOTC, exemplifying the commitment and determination of our Officer Cadets.
