What is MBAT, you ask? MBAT is an annual sports tournament hosted by HEC, the Parisian business school. While the logistics left something to be desired (hello, waiting on the curb for 90 minutes for a bus to the campus... not to mention the fish jello for lunch), the weekend was a definite highlight of our big crazy MBA year.
Cambridge placed 7th overall out of 14 participating schools – a major accomplishment considering the small size of our contingent (66 students, versus 212 from Another Big Business School in London). We fielded a total of 18 sports, from rugby to salsa to tug of war, and earned 4 bronze and 8 silver medals. Previous Cambridge teams have not earned more than 3 medals at MBAT, so we are thrilled with this year’s outcome. Check it out!

Many thanks to all the Cambridge MBAT participants. Whether you captained a team, played one sport or a variety of sports, or cheered from the sidelines, your efforts paid off and we had a lot of fun along the way. This was a weekend none of us will soon forget, and it would not have been the success it was without the enthusiasm of the Cambridge MBA class.
Now... on to Oxbridge!
