Selwyn women in University Shield

On Saturday 2 May 2026, Selwyn’s women’s football team put in a fantastic effort in the Cambridge University Shield, finishing their season as Shield runners-up and fourth in the league overall.

Captained by Jaya Fox, the team looked sharp in their brand-new kit, generously gifted by Selwyn alumnus Nick Craggs.

The final score was 6–1, with our goal coming from an own goal by Queens’, assisted by Alice Cammegh and Daisy Burnip. The whole college is immensely proud of the women’s performances throughout the campaign.

Alice Cammegh said: "Seeing the team grow from 5 people to over 17 has been one of the greatest joys of the season. Jaya has worked so hard to create a welcoming environment, and I think it's clear to everyone how much we love playing together."
