On Sunday the men's team were crowned BUSA Knockout Trophy Winners at Loughborough University after beating Bournemouth 3-2 in a hard fought final.

The weekend began on Saturday with a semi-final clash against Glasgow Caledonian. Early in the game both teams were fairly evenly matched with York having a slight upper hand. During the first set one of the players from Glasgow injured a knee and with only 5 other players had to continue to hobble around court. After a long delay for physio treatment the game was won 3-0 by York.

Sunday afternoon saw the final against Bournemouth. Both teams were up for the game and a close first set went to Bournemouth. York fought back with the next two sets due to strong team play and atmosphere on court. The fourth set went to Bournemouth but York finally clinched the game with a good run of play in the fifth set.

Congratulations and well played to the whole team, as everyone contributed to the win at some point in the season! Bad luck to Bournemouth - it was a enjoyable game to play in - apart from when members of the opposition try to pull down peoples shorts on court! He was lucky to just get away with a yellow card!!

That's the first time that the University of York has won one of the BUSA volleyball competitions in their 40 year history and continues the unbeated run in BUSA this season. Roll on Lancaster for the Roses games!
