Oxford NTS & CTS
The fourth NTS CTS tournament of the season took place in Oxford on 21 June under bright sunny skies (finally!).
In the NTS cup final Hot Custard ran out 7-3 winners against Galaxy.
Tumeke beat Cambridge Hornets 5-3 in the plate final; the bowl final was won by Wigan Warriors, beating Oxford 9-6; and Thames Valley Vikings beat CSSC Phantoms 3-2 to win the shield.
In the CTS, the cup was won by Cambridge Bees (4-3 against Varsity Vandals), the plate was won by Percy Park Pirates (4-3 against Flamingos), the bowl by CSSC Shadows (4-3 against Thames Valley Vikings), and the shield by Oxford Touch (5-4 against Bristol Fijians).
Thanks to everyone involved for a great day's touch, especially to the referees, physios, volunteers, and the ETA's Tournament Director Kevin Hill.
Those who pushed-on for the post-tournament social enjoyed alfresco drinks and fireworks from high up on top of Oxford's spectacular skyline.
