Sedbergh Super Tens 2023 Champions
Congratulations to Kirkham Grammar School rugby boys who won the Sedbergh Super 10s on Monday 27 March following a 17-5 win in the final v Sedbergh School. The boys won two of their three group games to qualify for the cup and put on a talented display in the final to take the cup for a second consecutive year - the first time in the cups' history that Kirkham have won the cup back to back.
KGS Head Coach, Mr Roddam said, "Having qualified for the cup after two wins in the group on day 1, we made the decision to rest the starting ten and play the reserves for the third and final group match v Stamford, the most physical team in the tournament, with the aim of the starting ten being fresh for day 2, and I believe that paid off. The final v Sedbergh was some of our boys' last game in a Kirkham shirt and there is no better way to finish their Kirkham career than lifting the Sedbergh Tens Trophy. I couldn't have asked for anything more."
A fantastic achievement, boys...can KGS achieve three in a row in 2024?
