Despite again missing a number of regular first choice starters, Connor James’ young team played some impressive sevens defeating Newcastle School for Boys in the first game by 48-7 and then accounting for a solid Ashville College side 35-5,with Spencer Cope, Callum Grieve and Andrew Bullman getting on the scoring sheet . In the semi-final, Kirkham played Welbeck College. KGS started well and Kieran Wilkinson, probably playing his last game for school, was outstanding scoring 3 quick tries as KGS sailed into the final to play host school Hill House. Despite opening the scoring with an Andrew Bullman try, Kirkham were pegged back by a determined Hill House side containing a number of Yorkshire Carnegie players and at half time the teams were squared at 7-7. KGS knew they were in a fight and responded in a very positive manner with tries from Callum Griev, Tom Giles and Will Gargett to give KGS A 28-7 victory. This success follows on from the recent excellent news that four KGS pupils have been selected for England Under 18 side to play a number of internationals in the coming weeks: Kieran Wilkinson, Sam Dugdale, Connor Doherty and Teddy Leatherbarrow will all be capped for England whilst at under 16 level Jonty Cope will represent Scotland in a tournament in Wales. **Tags:** [2017-2018](http://www.kirkhamgrammarjnr.co.uk/news/tag/2017-2018) - [ previous](http://www.kirkhamgrammarjnr.co.uk/news/2018-03-13-kgjs-rugby-news) - [next ](http://www.kirkhamgrammarjnr.co.uk/news/2018-04-04-katy-birchall-author-visit) - [Mission Statement](http://www.kirkhamgrammarjnr.co.uk/about-us/mission-statement) - [Latest News](http://www.kirkhamgrammarjnr.co.uk/news) - [History of KGS](http://www.kirkhamgrammarjnr.co.uk/about-us/history) - [Location & Community](http://www.kirkhamgrammarjnr.co.uk/about-us/location) - [Term Dates](http://www.kirkhamgrammarjnr.co.uk/about-us/termdates) - [Statutory Information](http://www.kirkhamgrammarjnr.co.uk/about-us/statutory-information) - [School Policies](http://www.kirkhamgrammarjnr.co.uk/about-us/policy-documents) - [Calendar](https://calendar.kirkhamgrammar.co.uk/week.aspx?ID=158) - [The Kirkhamian](http://www.kirkhamgrammarjnr.co.uk/news-1/the-kirkhamian) - [The Friends of KGS](http://www.kirkhamgrammarjnr.co.uk/thefriends-of-kgs) - [Old Kirkhamians' Association](http://www.kirkhamgrammarjnr.co.uk/old-kirkhamians-association) - [Hire of Facilities](http://www.kirkhamgrammarjnr.co.uk/about-us/hire-of-facilities) - [Vacancies](https://www.kirkhamgrammar.co.uk/vacancies/our-vacancies) ## Kirkham Grammar School ## Kirkham Grammar Junior, Infant & Pre-School Ribby Rd Kirkham Preston Lancashire PR4 2BH Tel: **01772 684264** Email: Ribby Road Kirkham Preston Lancashire PR4 2BD Tel: **01772 673222** Email: [![HMC Leading Independent Schools](https://files.schudio.com/kirkham-grammar-school/images/partners/hmc.png)](https://www.hmc.org.uk/)[![Boarding Schools' Association](https://files.schudio.com/kirkham-grammar-school/images/partners/bsa.png)](http://www.boarding.org.uk/) © Copyright 2019–2026 Kirkham Grammar School School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](http://www.kirkhamgrammarjnr.co.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
