The Intervarsities are an annual event where colleges pit themselves against each other to win the Intervarsity Cup. Its held every year in February/March, this year NUIG will be hosting the event. The club usually enters at least two ladies and two mens teams, which allows at least twenty four members to travel to the week long event. It is the highlight of the college year!!!
Last year the Intervarsities were held in the picturesque setting of Mount Pleasant in Dublin City. The mens team put up a brilliant performance and were narrowly beaten in the semi-final by Trinity College. DCU's men would go on to beat Trinity in the final.
The ladies team also played very well and were beaten in the quarter-final by UCD.
DCU Ladies would eventually take the title for the sixth year running. Well done to them.
Since the turn of the century the Intervarsities have been dominated by DCU team's, but hopefully this year we might be able to change that!!

As there are no tennis courts on campus, we currently use the facilities of
Sunday's Well Tennis Club.
This picturesque club is located in
Fitzerald Park accessible from
Mardyke Walk, only minutes from UCC, and close to the Mardyke Arena.
It has eight all weather tennis courts. It was here in 1999, 2004 and 2008 that UCC hosted the annual Intervarsities.
