Not only did Rhys Mottram play for Crawshays on the weekend, but he got on the scoreboard and also captained them, in what was a very tight match. Well done Rhys!
A passionate and dogged display from the 1stXV team, who played an equally determined Bro Edern team in the semi-final of the Welsh Schools Plate competition. With only two points to separate the teams, Stanwell came through as eventual winners and progress to the final.
Well done the year 8 team on a fantastic day of 7s

The Yr10 7s team played in the Urdd National Competition today in less than perfect conditions. Despite this, they still managed to put together some excellent performances, winning 4 of their 6 matches. The PE department are now looking for volunteers to wash the kit!!!! 😂
Very proud of the passionate performance by 1stXV this evening, against a skillful
