Bubble Chamber Cup Announcement
We will hold this year's event before the IoP meeting, on the afternoon of Tuesday 7th April. The 5-a-side matches (6-a-side in case we have more players) will be played at a location close to the conference venues (to be announced nearer the time). Please form your institute teams and we will update once we have a sign-up form.
 
All people from HEP and APP are welcome to play. Athletic ability is not required, but a competitive spirit is mandatory!
