AoC Sport and CRC celebrate International Women’s Day

On Friday 6th March 2020, AoC Sport visited Cambridge Regional College to deliver an afternoon of fun sporting activities to students from across the region to mark International Women’s Day.

Students from Hertford Regional College and the CRC Huntingdon Campus joined Cambridge students in the Cambridge Campus sports halls to participate in a roller disco, glow drumming and glow badminton celebrating ‘This Girl Can’, a National Lottery-funded campaign to encourage girls to get active.

In total, 61 students took part in the event, many of whom were trying out a new activity for the first time. The feedback was very positive and it was fantastic to see that those taking part really appreciated the key messages of International Women’s Day, with one student commenting, ‘IWD is a very important day. The younger generation can see how important it is to value women and celebrate equality.’
