Alumni return to enjoy sport at the Then vs. Now event

Kent Sport and Kent Union welcomed back alumni to participate in a variety of sports to help celebrate the university’s 50th anniversary year with the Then vs Now sports event on 23 May.

Participants included individuals dating back to 2007 and alumni travelled from as far as Dubai to reach their old stomping ground at the Canterbury campus.

The Inter College 5-a-side was won by a Darwin Towers alumni team, who emerged victorious over one of the three Keynes F.C. alumni teams who were present on the day.

Neither side could be separated in normal time and so penalties were required, with Towers edging the spot kicks 5-4. Pepe Castiglione was named Player of the Tournament with Jonny Klug receiving the prestigious Most Weathered Individual award for 2015.
