The draw for the 2012 College Cup has been made. Champions Halifax have been drawn into arguably the toughest group alongside Goodricke 1sts and dangerous 2nds sides in the form of James and Derwent. College League champions James also face a tough group against an Alcuin side who finished the grass season well, and a Vanbrugh 2nds side who topped their respective league this season. Last year’s surprise package James 3rds are in Group 1, alongside beaten finalists Derwent, whilst Group 4 contains a Halifax 2nds side who made it to the semi-finals last year.

One thing’s for sure, it’ll be a much worse competition without me.
To say I’m hucked off is an understatement.
As a housemate of the above, you certainly do not want to see him get “hucked off” by anyone. It goes everywhere.
It’ll be a much slower tournament without my electrifying pace on show
