Junior Common Room
The Junior Common Room is the undergraduate membership of the college which are governed by the Junior Common Room Committee (JCRC). This committee is responsible for all the college activities such as college sport (Goodricke College is the current holder of the Inter-College Sports Trophy), Christmas and Summer Balls, bar quizzes and college events. After the move to Heslington East, the Goodricke JCRC has made a concerted effort to create a new class of events with the lack of a bar in the new college. These events have enjoyed considerable support and contain the likes of "Graffiti Bar Crawls", "Goodricke Invasion" and also "Goodfest", a free 12 hour outside festival within Goodricke itself. This was a hugely popular event when first organised in 2010 by Tim Ellis and the 2010 JCRC committee and is now an annual occurrence.
