Portland Bowl is a teams-of-four knock-out competition played by British Universities and Higher Education Institutions for which Green Points are awarded.

All players must be registered as full time students with the University of Cambridge. Competition entry is unlimited this year and we will allocate people to teams of four or six (so people can rotate), based on experience. It is preferable that you find a partner before signing up.

Sign up closes by Friday 06 November 2026.

All rounds before the Final Weekend will be organised between individual clubs and there will be a play-by date for every round. The Final Weekend will be 17-18 April 2027. Please make sure you have these dates available if you qualify for the semifinals (Cup) and final (Plate).
