Southampton’s Athletic Union have revealed the date and venue of the 2015 Varsity Cup.

The big day will take place on Sunday March 15th in Portsmouth.

For the uninformed, the Varsity Cup is an annual day-long tournament between Southampton and Portsmouth. Southampton have historically dominated, barring a controversial loss in 2013.

We spoke to VP Sports Development, Katie Lightowler. Here’s what she had to say:

Varsity has been set as the 15th March. It’ll be hosted by Portsmouth this year. The bar was set high with our incredible win last year. I’m excited for Team Southampton to play on Pompey turf and show them what we’re made of.

It’s a better date than the last time the event was at Portsmouth when they held it during our Easter holiday!

Good luck Team Southampton!
