University E Team - 2008-09

Captain: Chris Benton

This season the E Team enjoyed a very mixed set of results and performed a Jekyll and Hyde act on many of the teams in the league by losing horrendously in one fixture and then thumping them soundly in the return. Our team sheet managed to compensate for any last minute drop-outs and we didn't forfeit a single board, (you hear that Newdigate!) as well as providing back-ups (at one point or another) for all of the higher division teams. Along with many old faces we also blooded several new players in the league this year, but the core of the team revolved around J-P, Arjun, Arvind, Azat and me.
