Skiing Cuppers this year rolled around earlier in the term than last, meaning that pre-Varsity trip enthusiasm was tangible.
Ten teams from Cambridge battled it out to be crowned champions of 2012. The two strongest colleges of recent years, Trinity and John’s, predictably made it to the final. A close race saw John’s reverse the result from 2011 to seal an impressive victory, made even sweeter by beating Oxford’s best team, St Anne’s, in the grand final.
The competition was a roaring success: skiers of all levels attempted to win glory for their college, before attention now turns to the Blues races and the second instalment of Cuppers on the Varsity Trip.
