These are players that have benefitted the club in some way,
though are not regular members (cos they live too far away)
Have a beer on us! - Terry

The incomparable Dr Cox was a starting partner in the club,
and added a lot of the initial cash and impetus. He is now safely as far away
from a Korfball court as he can possibly be (New York). A intelligent player at
all student levels Dr Cox was guaranteed to make his marker work for their
money. Also a very witty, sensible and not at all scary drunk man. He has
discovered the meaning of life but didn't bother to write it down. (Not in a
way we can understand anyhow!)

Alas, Rob has moved off down to Swansea to play with his hang-glider where he
can invent new and interesting ways to hurt himself (charging into women was
not enough.). City will miss his electric pace and strong collecting. There
once was a club in Swansea you know Rob? Hehe.
|
 |
|
Clive has only played for us once (and that was last season),
but we all like him anyway since he drove our posts all the way from London
when we couldn't be arsed to go get them ourselves. He plays for Woking (with
Joy Andrews - another ex Cardiff Uni superstar) and seems to like marking
Terry, who will happily let Clive run past him, as long as he can take all the
penalties Clive concedes. His refereeing leaves much to be desired.

Jon is our contact in Holland and is usually kind enough to
take us drinking when we go and embarrass ourselves by playing dutch teams.
Having said that, we did beat Jon while he was playing for Erasmus once. Hehe.
A former BSDS captain, Jon is possibly the second most competitive man ever to
put on a Cardiff Uni shirt. Still has a bad taste in clothes.

(Lancaster Uni. 1st team)
Left us to go back up north. Dan's 'humourous' contributions
to trainng sessions will be sorely missed. Dan's exit leaves several of the
girlies brokenhearted (for a minute or two at least) - but hey, that's one less
first team selection headache :-)
|
 |
|
As Cardiff's best "didn't know what korfball was before she
started with us" player, Trish is a pure tribute to Terry's coaching - probably
why she's now in Southampton.
|
 |
|
We lost Kate back to her beloved hockey side right at the
point where some of Terry's coaching was starting to show some effect. She
still holds the record for most bruises picked up in one match and is
justifiably proud.

(BUSA Silver '02 - Nottingham Uni. / British Students)
With a job in the big smoke leading her away, Elaines
twilight summer has been another of the quality we have come to expect.
Increasing vocal as the Captain, Elaine has been seen putting several referees
to rights this summer! We wish her well, and know whatever club she joins will
be gaining a quality player.
|
 |
|
Actually a rugby referee and lives in
Nottingham. Has never attended one of our training sessions, but is so
regularly dragged to tournaments by Elaine that he is among our most regular
players.
|
 |
|
Brians other half also took up the mantle of playing for us
at the Nomads tournament, and was very polite in discussing it with us
afterwards. A former NL league player with Nomads, Helen came to a training
session one night and rained down long shots that our girls (and boys) are
still discussing. One day our girls will play like this. Promise!
|
 |
|
Ed is the all action president of Oxford Brookes Uni, who has
graced our colours on the odd occasion. Cardiff born Ed is also a member of the
Counties team. In a very bizzare twist of fate was in the same Brass band at
school as Rachel and Rob Davies. We are scared (though not of Ed).
|
 |
|
Yet another ex-Cardiff Uni star, and provider of many girl
goals in Taff's BUSA bronze medal team of '97. Now an occasional player on
account of living in Coventry, but guested for us all day at the Nottingham
tournament and needs to move back to South Wales dammit!!!
|
 |
|
Social dazzler previously of Sheffield Uni, and kind enough
to guest for us at the Nottingham tournament when her own team bailed. Cat
stands for everything that's good about UK korfball, partying, drinking and
having a damn good time on and off court! Top lass!
|
 |
|
Ex-Cardiff Uni legend who introduced Taff to the beautiful
game - so without him our club probably wouldn't be here. Unlikely to retire
from Korfball while his legs still work and the ultimate korf-mercenary. It is
our aim to get him guest for us once a season.
|
 |
|
Exeter korf guru and occasional ref of our games with
Bristol. Tony is best known for having the nerve to argue back with Midge when
most refs would have been cowering behind a yellow card. Here he is practising
for his next drinking game with us.
|
 |
|
Gareths lay off with a wrist injury has seen his spot as
uber-sub taken away. Then he moved house and thanks to a slump in the market
can't move back. A likely story ;-) We look forward to his return one day.
Maybe.

(BUSA Gold '01 - Cardiff Uni.)
Now calling it a day after an injury list Bryan Robson would
be proud of, Cally is free from aches and pains and will keep it that way as
long as she can stay on the sidelines!
|
 |
|
Not really sure why Becky called it quits, but the boys miss
her and her house parties....
|
 |
|
(BUSA Bronze 1997 - Cardiff Uni.)
If Rachel has a dislike for playing outdoors, Dave has a
practically vampiric aversion to playing out in the sunshine. Is now helping
set up a Rugby League club in Wales and is too important at work to get away on
time to train with us so unlikely to be back for a while.

Korfgod
Briefly head of coaching at Cardiff City when back spasms and
family commitments allowed. A shame we couldn't persuade him to come more
often, but Tenby is 75 miles away...!
|
 |
If you want to be included in this rarefied list, be nice to
us, and help us in our bid for Korfball domination. Thanks
