The biggest week in the Warwick sporting calendar is now firmly underway as the annual VARSITY showdown returns. We’re looking to retain Warwick’s unbroken record against our arch-rivals from Coventry University, and we hope you’ll come out to support our sports teams as they head into battle!
Tickets for the week’s showcase fixtures - the Ice Hockey on 23rd February and a special Rugby Union double bill of Cov vs Warwick and Wasps vs Gloucester on 26th Feb - are still available online, while physical tickets and coach passes can now be picked up from SUHQ Reception. Members of the Wasps team will be out on the Piazza today between 11am-2pm today supporting the cause, while student media will be interviewing the players on how they’re feeling in the run-up to the games.
Look out too for our #teamwarwick souvenir T-shirts, available for just £5 from Reception. Best of luck to all postgraduate students (not to mention their undergraduate counterparts) who’ll be competing throughout the week!
