The University of Plymouth competed in their annual Varsity competition against the University of St Mark & St John, where both men's and ladies football matches were held at Home Park. The University of Plymouth 1st team captains told us:
As a student, playing at Home Park for Varsity is a
unique and fantastic opportunity to showcase yourself in front of the rest of
the University. I thoroughly enjoyed leading the team out, and to win the game
on penalties after being 2-0 down showed immense character from the lads. The support from the University of Plymouth students was phenomenal, a very
special day for all involved.
Connor Kilgallon, Men’s Football 1st Captain
Playing at Argyle was a great experience. The changing rooms had been recently refurbished so was really nice for us to relax before and after the game. The ladies fought hard and I am extremely proud of the efforts they gave on the pitch. We supported the men's team from the Player’s Lounge and it was great to see the Varsity cup come home!
Rhiannon Smart, Ladies Football Captain.
