Sports Yearbook 2016 Incorporating the Annual Review 2014 - 2015 a Word from the Vice-Chancellor Welcome to the University of Cambridge Sports Year Book 2016 University of Cambridge Sport Sports Yearbook 2016 Incorporating the Annual Review 2014 - 2015 A word from the Vice-Chancellor Welcome to the University of Cambridge Sports Year Book 2016 I am delighted to introduce this annual review of sport at Cambridge. Our students develop their sporting talent through competition at College, University and national level. These pages include accounts of many of their successes over the past year. I know from my own student career that passion for study and passion for sport are often complementary, and I am proud that Cambridge produces excellent achievers in both spheres. The 2014/15 academic year has been a time of change for sport at the University, with the formation of the Sports Committee, the retirement of Tony Lemons, and the appointment of Nick Brooking to the Director role from the start of 2016. In addition to this, a Strategy for Sport is currently in development, which will hopefully see sport become more cohesive across the entire University community, with everyone from staff to students working towards a collective goal of enhancing the reputation of Cambridge University Sport and giving everyone who wishes the opportunity to participate. Thank you for your support of Cambridge’s dedicated sportsmen and women. I wish you a very successful sporting year.

However, over the years his role extended far beyond this as the Department grew and expanded, and the importance of sport within the University started to grow with it. Outside of his role at the University, Tony has held a number of national and international positions including Vice President University Commission for Sport and Culture in the European Community, Chairman of the British Student Sports Federation. He is currently a Councillor and Board Member of the British Lawn Tennis Association Ltd. and a Trustee Director of the Tennis Foundation. In 2006, he experienced a career highlight when he was invited to the 11th World Sports for all Congress in On the 30th September 2015, we said goodbye to Havana by the International Olympic Committee. In Tony Lemons, who had been part of the Physical 2013, Tony was then awarded an MBE for Services to Education Department (now the Sports Service) at University Sport. the University of Cambridge for 32 years.

By the late 1980s he was engaged both within the University, the City, and further afield as a major figure in national bodies and holding such prestigious positions as Chef de Mission for the British Student team in the World Student Games of 1989. In the early 90s, he then became the Director of Sport. 2 Sports Yearbook 2016 Welcome to Nick Brooking Speaking about his role at Cambridge Nick said “I am delighted to have been appointed as Director of Sport at the University of Cambridge and recognise this as a great responsibility as well as an exciting opportunity. Cambridge has unique complexity in its sporting provision with so many individuals, clubs and organisations involved. So, in addition to the challenge of meeting the ever growing expectations around facilities, competitions and performance sport, there is also a need to address some of the practical challenges that exist around safety and legislation for example, whilst also ensuring we maximise the opportunity for greater promotion of the wider, positive aspects of recreational activity for health, educational and social benefits. The first key task we are embarking upon is For the 2015/16 academic year, the University development of a strategy for sport at Cambridge appointed Nick Brooking as the new Director of so this diversity and complexity can be effectively Sport. Previous to his appointment at Cambridge, harnessed as a strength when planning priorities Nick had worked in the same role at the University for future investment.” of Hertfordshire and in private and public sector sport prior to that. While at Hertfordshire Nick led the team that developed significant sports facilities envied by many other Universities, established the Athletic Union which helped improve student performance sport and also, in conjunction with the county sport partnership, developed an award winning student social sport programme with an emphasis on wellbeing benefits. Nick is one of two representatives of Higher Education on the Sport England TASS Management Group, and is also a Trustee of the Saracens Sport Foundation which has won a number of accolades for achievement of its mission to inspire communities and change lives using the power of sport. 3 PVC for Education’s Message at Cambridge. One of the many issues I have to grapple with (and Cambridge is not peculiar in this regard) concerns student physical and mental well- being. Sport at whatever level of engagement has a crucial role in ensuring that Cambridge students gain the most they can from their educational experience. Over the last year since taking on the role of chair of the Sports Committee I have spent time meeting sports captains, senior treasurers, coaches, alumni and staff to discuss what we need to do to improve sport at Cambridge. We are in the process of developing a new strategy for sport, which will involve the following components. First, we need to ensure that all sports clubs are fully accountable and responsible, but they should also receive more administrative support. Sports clubs presently have a lot of paperwork This has been a significant year for sport at to complete in order to be registered with the Cambridge. We have marked the retirement of Proctors. We will be moving to registration of all Tony Lemons, whose long tenure as Director of sports clubs with the Sports Committee. This will Physical Education saw a remarkable change in still require some bureaucracy, but we want to have sporting engagement, support and infrastructure, a system whereby student officers, senior treasurers culminating in the opening of the Sports Centre. and coaches are given more support in completing We welcome the new Director of Sport, Nick this documentation so that they can concentrate Brooking, and wish him well in his new post. I am on the important things, namely ensuring sporting very grateful for the hard work and dedication excellence. We have also expanded the definition of the whole sports team throughout the year, of sport in the university so that the number of particularly Karen Pearce who has been the acting sports clubs over which the Sports Committee will Director of Sport during the interregnum. have oversight will rise from just over 50 to 85.

    Sport and recreation sector commit to tackling inequality The appalling death of George Floyd, the global protests that have followed and the powerful message of the Black Lives Matter movement has made every section of society take notice and confront an ugly truth. Sport and recreation has an influential role to bring about meaningful change and this period has rightly led the sector to reflect, listen, question, learn and openly discuss how to take positive action. It is acknowledged that up to this point, we have not done enough. It is time to confront racism and inequality that exists across sport, from grassroots participation through to the boardroom. Research by the Sport and Recreation Alliance (2018) showed that four in ten (40%) of BAME participants have endured a negative experience in sport or physical activity settings, more than double that of white participants. A 2020 Sport England report demonstrates that just over 50% of black people in England meet the recommended levels of physical activity each week. The Diversity in Sport Governance report (2018/19) identified there is only 5% BAME board representation across Sport England and UK Sport funded organisations. Constructive work has already been started to address a number of these problems including a committed effort to increase boardroom diversity, additional funding to tackle inequality and an array of inspiring inclusiveness projects from across the sport and recreation sector. This can only be seen as the start. Systemic change must be made at all levels so that we can become truly reflective of our wonderfully diverse society. We can no longer rely on black role models at the elite level speaking out, we must join together to become better and to support every member of the sport and recreation community.

  • History of Badminton
    Facts and Records History of Badminton In 1873, the Duke of Beaufort held a lawn party at his country house in the village of Badminton, Gloucestershire. A game of Poona was played on that day and became popular among British society’s elite. The new party sport became known as “the Badminton game”. In 1877, the Bath Badminton Club was formed and developed the first official set of rules. The Badminton Association was formed at a meeting in Southsea on 13th September 1893. It was the first National Association in the world and framed the rules for the Association and for the game. The popularity of the sport increased rapidly with 300 clubs being introduced by the 1920’s. Rising to 9,000 shortly after World War Π. The International Badminton Federation (IBF) was formed in 1934 with nine founding members: England, Ireland, Scotland, Wales, Denmark, Holland, Canada, New Zealand and France and as a consequence the Badminton Association became the Badminton Association of England. From nine founding members, the IBF, now called the Badminton World Federation (BWF), has over 160 member countries. The future of Badminton looks bright. Badminton was officially granted Olympic status in the 1992 Barcelona Games. Indonesia was the dominant force in that first Olympic tournament, winning two golds, a silver and a bronze; the country’s first Olympic medals in its history. More than 1.1 billion people watched the 1992 Olympic Badminton competition on television. Eight years later, and more than a century after introducing Badminton to the world, Britain claimed their first medal in the Olympics when Simon Archer and Jo Goode achieved Mixed Doubles Bronze in Sydney.
