The blade colours of Sidney Sussex College Boat Club
Sidney Sussex College Boat Club (often referred to as just Sidney) is the rowing club for members of Sidney Sussex College, Cambridge. The club has spend most of its time in the 2nd division of the Lent and May Bumps, with brief times spent in the 1st division. Being a small college, the club has never had the consistency to rise to take a headship of either event, and has been as high as 6th in the Lent Bumps in 1913, and 11th in the May Bumps in 1923. In the last couple of years, the men's 1st VIII has fallen, and now resides near the middle of the 2nd division in both events. A women's crew first appeared in 1978 and has spent most of its time in the lower-half of the 1st division in both the Lent and May Bumps, but recently has fallen to the top-half of the 2nd division of the Lent Bumps and lower-half of the 2nd division in the May Bumps.
