“Leeds Surf Club had an incredible time at the Colours Awards, celebrating not just our own achievements but those of so many amazing societies. Winning Club of the Year was an unforgettable moment- it felt like the perfect way to round off a successful year of growth and hard work. The night was a great chance to look back on everything we’ve achieved and to celebrate with the wider LUU community that we are so proud to be a part of!”
“Winning Team of the Year was such a great experience! Our Gryphons team have worked so hard this year we were so glad to see them get the recognition they deserve. The whole night was so much fun and great to celebrate other sports clubs success too!” — Hannah Lillis
