"The third annual Old Boys Varsity match took place on Saturday morning at Eton, as a high-quality curtain raiser to the main event. This year's match saw the appearance of several players new to this fixture, ranging from last year's Oxford first pair to some Blues on both sides of a rather more mature vintage. After a Cambridge win and a draw in the previous two years, it was Oxford's turn to come out on top this time as they claimed a 3-1 victory in a close and enjoyable match. We are always looking for new players for this fixture, so if you went to either Oxford or Cambridge - whether last year or in the dim and distant past and whether you actually played Fives there or not - we would love to have you involved next year."
