A World Class Facility for a World Class University MICHAELMAS 2013 A world class facility for a world class University From the President Gentlemen Hawks, I am proud and honoured to have been elected President of this special club, and my committee members and I will do our utmost to uphold its fine traditions. Looking around my committee, it reminds me of what the Hawks' Club is all about: talented athletes Borna Guevel from completely different disciplines coming together to uphold the fantastic solidarity that exists within Cambridge sport. Cambridge now has a state-of-the-art new sports centre and I hope it well help usher in a new era of dominance over the Other Place.

We are once again delighted to have Right To Play as our main charity and we hope to widen our charitable donations this year by forming a link with The Boxing Academy. This is a scheme that runs two specialist schools in East London, acting as an alternative to exclusion for teenagers; its aim is to reintegrate them into society using a unique blend of sport and education. We hope it will be the start of a fruitful relationship similar to that which we have formed with Right To Play. We always love to hear from Hawks of all ages so please do get in contact ([email protected]) if you have any ideas or queries for the club. For those on social media, you can now find us on Facebook (facebook.com/ thehawksclub) and Twitter (@thehawksclub). Thank you for your continued support of The Hawks' Club.

A sighting of the Tie - Dr John Marks The Cambridge News reports: “A College sports pavilion has been opened by the man it is named after. The John Marks Pavilion was funded almost entirely by more than 800 Girton alumni and includes two changing rooms, an umpire’s changing room, and a social space. It was named after Girton life fellow Dr John Marks because of his support for the college and his role in promoting sport.

    SCRUTINISED LONG MANIFESTOS - TT20 (2ND ELECTION) CANDIDATES FOR PRESIDENT-ELECT Amy Gregg (Ex-Treasurer, Exeter College ) - Candidate for President-Elect - Long Manifesto The Union has had significant setbacks in the last few years. I did not intend to run this term, but it is clear that the Union needs a President who has the experience and the capability to set it back on the right course. The Union can do so much better, and the Union must do so much better. As an undergraduate, I was President of the Cambridge Union. During this time I ran a record-setting membership drive, managed a £100,000 budget, and hosted over thirty speakers including Stephen Fry, Quentin Blake and Moazzam Begg. After leaving Cambridge I was a trainee solicitor at a Magic Circle Law firm, and I now hold an offer for a pupillage to be a barrister. I have real world experience which I can use to improve our Union as well. I previously served on committee for 7 terms. In this time I arranged 5 debates, including confirming 5/6 speakers for the Comedy debate. I ran Debates, Panels and Speaker events, confirmed multiple speakers and chaired the Union’s largest committee. I also spent over 50 days of vacation working for the Union and made 3 winning paper speeches. As Treasurer I secured 29 debate Floor Prizes, 12 New Treasurer’s Treats and coordinated sponsorship from a major Scholarship fund - ensuring transparency by publishing the audited accounts on the app. This demonstrates that I have the ability to run the Union, but it also made me realise: the Union needs real change - change only an experienced President can bring.

This case is concerned with the right of the claimant, the Pontypool Rugby Club, a club with a proud history, to continue to play in the Premier Division of Welsh rugby in the 2012/13 season. The defendant is the Welsh Rugby Union, which organises and controls the sport of rugby union in Wales. It is the view of the WRU that as a result of the re-organisation of the Premier Division to reduce the number of clubs playing in it and Pontypool’s position in order of playing meritocracy of the fourteen clubs formerly in the division, the club is now only eligible to play in the Championship, the next division down. The essence of Pontypool’s case is that clubs which are above it on a basis of playing merit have not met the requirements to hold an A licence as required for the Premiership by the WRU’s National League Rules 2011/2012, and so there is a place for Pontypool within the Premiership.

    Black & Amber Alliance Issue 5 www.fonr.co.uk mailto:[email protected] Welcome to a special edition of the Black & Amber Alliance. Due to the news relating to the redevelopment of Rodney Parade, and the subsequent speculation regarding this, FoNR and the Supporters Club met with the C E O of Rodney Parade Ltd to obtain further information relating to this matter. FoNR felt that it had a responsibility to publish details of that meeting in the form of this newsletter. As speed of giving information to our members, and the supporters as a whole, was of paramount importance we needed to publish without delay, Hopefully the next issue will include the normal input from the Supporters Club and the Former Players Association. Ground Redevelopment Martyn Hazell announced plans to build a £40m state-of-the-art stadium on the existing Rodney Parade site at a press conference on Tuesday 4th September. The 15,000 capacity new stadium, which will house the Newport Gwent Dragons and Newport RFC will have new training facilities and clubhouse, it should be up and running in 2010 in time for the Ryder Cup. Work will start in 2009 and is expected to take 18 months, and it is fully supported by the WRU and Newport Council. Martyn Hazell said "This is the most exciting news since Lord Tredegar gave the ground to Newport in 1873, it will keep rugby in south-east Wales for the next 100 years. There will be a state-of-the-art training facility used by the rugby, but it will also be open to members of the public - it's also for the community and can be booked and used.

Peterhouse was founded in 1284. It is a simple and brief statement, but our college’s life has been neither simple nor brief. It is supremely difficult to summarise almost 800 years of history. You could wax lyrical over the historical events our college has shaped and been shaped by. You could mention some of our most famous alumni, among them a Prime Minister and an Archbishop of Canterbury. Or you could think of all the remarkable things they have brought into the world: from computers to jet engines to poetry and laughter, and, most importantly, the bassline of one of the greatest songs ever (it’s Creep, by Radiohead, if you’re wondering).
