Fives

Fives is a game very like squash, but played with gloved hands instead of a racket.

It is a sports option in the spring term for all year groups and in the autumn term after the Fourth Form. There are matches for all age groups and three national tournaments.

In their first two terms with us, Fourth Form pupils have the chance to learn the game in special lunch-hour coaching sessions.

Over the past 15 years, St Paul’s has been the dominant force in schools’ Rugby Fives (national schools’ singles champions in 9 seasons, and doubles champions 9 times). Most recently, in 2023, St Paul’s won the U16 National Singles title.
