KGS 1st XV v Scarisbrick Hall in the U18 Continental Tyres Schools Cup Round 3
Wednesday 5th November
Result: 28 - 0 win
Kirkham Grammar School's 1st XV secured their place in the 4th round of the U18 Continental Tyres Schools Cup with a 28-0 victory over Scarisbrick Hall. The first half proved to be a tough war of attrition, with the heavy pitch conditions, caused by overnight rain, severely restricting attacking play. With both defenses holding firm, points were scarce. Kirkham managed to edge into the lead thanks to two successful penalties from Jack Wilsdon, giving them a narrow 6-0 lead at the half-time whistle.
In the second half, Kirkham found another gear, with their strong ball carrying establishing dominance over the tiring Scarisbrick Hall side. This pressure led to four unanswered tries. Harry Marsh was the primary beneficiary, scoring two tries, with Archie Blackburn and Joe Unsworth adding one each. Jack Wilsdon converted one of these scores to push the final tally to 28-0, seeing Kirkham safely through to the next stage of the Schools Cup.

Saturday 15th November 2025
On Saturday, KGS welcomed Giggleswick School for a competitive U14 fixture. The home side made a steady start, taking a few minutes to settle into their rhythm, but once they found their stride the match quickly tilted in KGS’s favour. A blistering spell of attacking play down the right flank set the tone, with excellent build-up work creating space for Amelia, who calmly completed a rapid hat-trick to give KGS control of the game. The defensive unit remained organised and disciplined throughout, meaning goalkeeper Poppy had little to do as Kirkham’s back line consistently broke down Giggleswick’s advances. The second half saw KGS grow in confidence, moving the ball with purpose and stretching the opposition defence. Further goals from Maisie, Polly, Ella, and Alexa capped an outstanding all-round team performance and showcased the depth of talent across the squad. It was an impressive display from the U14s, who combined determination, teamwork and skill to secure a convincing victory.
