Well done to all the staff and students who took part in the Maths football match on Friday 12 June.
Held on the University football pitches, the match saw our undergraduate students (in purple) and our staff (in red) fight for the winners trophy. Both teams looked ready to take on the challenge, with strategy talks still taking place minutes before the game commenced. The student team dominated in the first half, however after half time (and a few oranges) the staff team came back stronger and more determined. Unfortunately this wasn't enough to secure the win and the students won the match 5-1.
This successful inaugural match, organised by MathsSoc member Jordan Bateman (also the student team manager), is set to become an annual event.
Full match report and team lists to follow.
