The Trinity Mathematical Society, or TMS, was founded in Trinity College, Cambridge in 1919 to 'promote the discussion of subjects of mathematical interest.' Today the TMS is one of the largest College societies and each year holds an extensive range of talks, together with social events including the famous annual cricket match against our rivals, the Adams Society of St John's.

All members of the University are welcome to come to TMS meetings. For information about joining the TMS, please see the membership page.

18/06/09: TMS reclaim winning form

After the shock defeat last year in the annual TMS v Adams Society cricket match, the TMS team have regained their pride by defeating the Adams Society by 37 runs.

Controversially, the TMS were put into bat first. This led to the bowling of an apple by the TMS President being against a TMS batsman. The apple went many metres wide, although the TMS President somehow found his bowling form in the Adams Soc innings, taking three wickets.

Final score
TMS: 153-6 (20 overs), Adams Soc: 116 (15.3 overs)

10/03/09: AGM Results

The details of the events for the forthcoming term have now been finalised. Check the calendar for more.

05/06/08: Cricket Match Change of Date

Our annual cricket match against the Adam's Society will now be held on Monday the 16th of June, at 12:00 noon on St. John's Playing Fields. The match will run for only a few hours, so will finish in good time for those who are attending the Trinity May Ball to get changed and in a good place in the queue. Sorry for any inconvenience this change of date may cause.

Just a reminder, we are still short on players for this year's match. TMS members of any experience level at all are welcome, you needn't be an experienced cricketer (though if you are, we'd certainly like to hear from you!) If you're interested in having a go, e-mail our captain, Graham Sills at gs300@cam.ac.uk.
