​​National Rugby Success

The U15 rugby team have reached the final of the National NatWest Schools Cup Plate competition following an exciting encounter against St Alban’s.

The team overcame a stern challenge from their opponents, when Will Evans glided through the defence to steal victory 24-17 in the last five minutes. On the way to the semi-final, the boys have beaten Kings College Wimbledon, London Oratory, St Benedict’s and Richard Lander School from Truro. The success has followed on from a great autumn term and the team has developed impressively into the spring term where rugby is not normally played. All the boys have contributed and Luke Scott has been picked for the Harlequins EPP and George Lyons and Charlie Hill for the London Irish EPP. A huge crowd gathered on Big Side to support the boys in the semi-final, and the final will be played at Worcester Warriors at 12.30pm on Tuesday 28 March. Coaches are being laid on by the School for anyone wishing to support the boys!
