Season Summary and New Committee

james — Thu, 24 Apr 2008 02:02:16 +0100

And so ends another season of Oxford lacrosse. Despite an uncertain start and a mid-season wobble, we managed eventually to turn ourselves into a decent match-winning side. Our new captain has a good basis on which to build as we enter a new league structure.

Tab Bashing

happylaxer — Mon, 03 Dec 2007 12:27:25 +0000

Travelling en-mass to the cold, windy tab homeland a large Oxford squad recorded a dominant league victory over their light blue counterparts. Straight from the off, Oxfords experienced first midfield string ripped into the tabs with Howie netting two without answer in the first five minutes as the pace and skill of the Blues proved too much for the tab midfield. This was to set the tone for the day with Oxford's experienced american trio of Chris, Tie and Ben tormenting the opposition defence and only Cambridge's scotland-hopeful goalie keeping the score respectable.

BUSA Midlands report

happylaxer — Wed, 28 Nov 2007 11:12:42 +0000

Saturday saw the men's lacrosse team travel to Birmingham to compete in a midlands BUSA tournament hoping to better their second place finish last year. Things started well with a 5-1 win over Birmingham before stuttering slightly against a fired-up Loughborough side who took an early lead before the blues began to assert their dominance. A string of saves from the Loughborough goalie kept the score 1-1. Next up was a hotly anticipated clash with Cambridge that never lived up to its billing - the dark blues running out comfortable 4-0 victors.

Welcome from the Men's Captain '07-'08

james — Fri, 05 Oct 2007 18:11:48 +0100

Welcome to the OULC website, and if you're new, welcome to Oxford. We're currently looking for new players to join our team, so if you're interested get in touch with me or come along to one of the training sessions. Details of when we play are available on the training page.

Men's lacrosse is a Discretionary Blue sport in Oxford. This means that everybody who plays in the Varsity Match (versus Cambridge in March) receives at least a Half-Blue, with up to four people receiving a Full-Blue at the captain's discretion. We are one of the oldest lacrosse clubs in the country, and were the first sport in Oxford to be awarded a Half-Blue, playing our first Varsity Match against Cambridge in 1903.

We are currently in the SEMLA East Division 1. For more information about the league, visit the SEMLA website.
