Strong Cup
Strong Cup is the annual point-system senior house competition for boys at Dauntsey's School, so Farmer, Fitzmaurice, Hemens and Mercers are the only houses that are involved. Farmer have won the cup more times than any other house and they are currently in possession of it (2011).
The points are awarded from inter-house events throughout the academic year. Such events include athletics, swimming, rugby, cricket, tennis, hockey, football, general knowledge quiz, basketball, water polo, music and a minor sports festival which includes badminton, squash, skittles, chess and table tennis.
