SCDF host Schools Boys Finals at The Totally Wicked Stadium

Year 7 – Cowley v Outwood Haydock

The Year 7 final between Cowley and Outwood Haydock was filled with drama, right up to the last minute. After Haydock took the lead, both sides battled with defence really on top. But as the game looked to be coming to an end, Cowley snatched the win as the hooter went with a try, bringing an end to a great game between both teams, with both sides leaving everything out on the field!

The second final didn’t disappoint either, with another close encounter between both sides. After a blistering start from St Cuthberts, Cowley battled their way back into the game and with 3 minutes to go grabbed the game-winning try to win the game and make it a double finals delight for Cowley on the day!

The teachers who give up their own time to coach and to travel to the games. The St Helens Referees society who provides such high quality referees, The Saints Players association for sponsoring the St Helens schools competition, the past players for giving their time to support the players of the future, The foundations staff who so expertly run the finals evenings and last but not least St Helens RFC and the board, for their continued support of the foundation and our work in the Community.
