A varsity match is a fixture (especially of a sporting event or team) between two university teams.[1] The Scottish Varsity rugby match between the University of St Andrews and the University of Edinburgh at Murrayfield stadium is claimed to be the oldest recurring varsity match in the world, having been played since the 1860s.[2] It is predated by the University Match in Cricket between Oxford and Cambridge, which was first played in 1827.[3]
