Imperial College Rugby claimed victory at the inaugural Celestial Capital Cup — a new university rugby sevens competition — with GumGauge i/impact indicators deployed throughout the entire competition.
The tournament, run under the University Celestial banner, brought together university rugby teams for a competitive sevens day. Imperial College's squad entered as one of the favourites, and the club's commitment to player welfare — underpinned by their ongoing partnership with GumGauge — was evident throughout.
A landmark moment for the partnership
Winning the inaugural edition of any competition is special. But for GumGauge, the Celestial Capital Cup represented something significant: an entire tournament played with GumGauge across every player, from the first whistle to the trophy lift. Every impact visible. Every player covered.
The Celestial Capital Cup added to a season in which Imperial College Rugby used GumGauge across fresher trials, league fixtures, and multiple tournament appearances — building one of the most consistent, long-running use cases for the product in university sport.
GumGauge is an objective tool to support sideline decision-making. It is not a diagnostic device, and does not replace assessment by a qualified individual.
