Following consultation with the University of Portsmouth, who are now unable to participate, we regret to announce that Varsity 2020 has been cancelled.
We are all hugely disappointed that this is the case, particularly after our earlier announcement, but the situation is unprecedented.
We would like to thank all the hard work put into this event by our staff and students.
We will be in contact with players and spectators to advise them about refunds.
With Varsity fast approaching this Sunday 15 March here’s everything you need to know before the big day:
For those of you who have bought £12 tickets (THEY ARE NOW SOLD OUT), your last opportunities to collect your t-shirts will be on Wednesday 11 and Thursday 12 March from the SUSU concourse (reception area of B42).
Spectator tickets are now on sale – if you aren’t planning to attend the Varsity after party then these tickets are a much cheaper alternative (although you won’t receive a t-shirt) than the full ticket at only £5.
