Bumps race
A bumps race is a form of rowing race in which a number of boats chase each other in single file, each boat attempting to catch and "bump" the boat in front without being caught by the boat behind....

. Newnham is, therefore, the only club (men or women) in the history of Cambridge bumps racing to have held the top two places simultaneously.

In 2006 Newnham won the newly inaugurated Pegasus Cup for being "the most successful college boat club competing in the Cambridge May Bumping Races".

The May races in 2007 saw Newnham go up three places. On the Wednesday, they fell behind to a fast start by Girton who closed quickly to within half-a-length of Trinity Hall. However, superb steering by coxswain Shanae Boyns around first-post corner gave Newnham a chance that they quickly seized and they managed to catch Girton at Grassy Corner. On the Thursday, Newnham started well and caught Trinity Hall just on first-post corner. Friday saw a fantastic start and Cauis became their third victim of the week with the bump occurring just on Ditton corner. The Saturday saw Newnham race well and draw to within 3/4-of-a-length of Emmanuel in a thrilling race before Emmanuel pulled away to row-over by a clear two-lengths.

In 2009/10 Newnham won the Mitchell Cup, annually awarded by the CUCBC to the Boat Club giving the best performance on the river during the course of the academic year. Newnham retained the trophy in 2010/11.
