boats-2-300xSelwyn’s men and women rowers are taking to the water this week in the May Bumps. These historic races, which take place in June despite their name, pit Cambridge Colleges against each other on the River Cam – with glory for the crew that manages to bump the boat in front of them.



boats-3-300x Selwyn has multiple crews taking part. Our top women’s boat is in Division 1, and our leading men are in Division 2. You can follow what happens by turning up riverside, with the latest information on timings here: http://www.cucbc.org/mays/times.
