Captain Catherine Wilcock has announced her squad for the 2016 Women’s Varsity Match to be played at Twickenham on Thursday 8th December, kick-off 11.30am. She has been able to include nine returning Blues in the starting XV with an additional one on the bench. The squad have made significant strides this term and have secured their BUCS Premier League status with three wins out of their eight matches played, but will still take the title of ‘underdog’ as they head to Twickenham.
